Flipside

The aim of the game is to travel through and place portals which will flip the player to the other side of the map in order to collect portal potions to create portals and keys to unlock doors, to complete the level's end which is marked by a red flag.

!!__Windows Version Coming Soon__!!
If someone could compile this to work with windows, I would be so grateful as I am having some problems compiling on Windows (dll hell).

Had a crack at compiling it, and have these notes:
- code also depends on GLM and GLEW (win binaries readily available thankfully)
- code uses C++11 features, which VS2010 doesn't support - haven't got 2013 around to try building it on

@wolfmother I should have said what the dependencies were but I was really tired last night and I had to go to bed. I'm going to trying port it again.

@gingerBill I have compiled it with QtCreator, but the game crashes inside of StateStack::createState when creating game state.

Wait, did we end up making the same game with the same title? Either way, I can't wait to play it when you guys work out a Windows port. I'd help, but I've never worked with code compilers before. Best of luck! ^^

Sorry, no OS/X.

Porting is a hobby of mine. I got a windows port figured out in about half an hour once I got all the dependencies in place.

It might not compile on OSX anymore with the source changes but I tried to be careful not to do anything seriously detrimental to the original source (except where I had to work around a compiler bug). Built with TDM-GCC 4.8.1 MinGW via CMake. Might be possible to build with msvc 2012 or 2013, but I did not try.

Anyway, gdrive folder contains Win32 build, debug build (need gdb to debug properly) and source code with cmake project file, CLion IDE project files, external dependencies, and changes.

Linux builds with gcc should be pretty effortless as well at this point. Just use cmake to generate a Makefile from the modified source.

On that note...now that I have seen how the game is SUPPOSED to work on the youtube video, it seems there is a camera issue (probably from where I changed where the code was using a private _invert function from one of the libs to use a public invert function) as well as the mouse being WAY too sensitive on the windows port.
