Build

Tested on Linux and Windows, but MacOS, and really any other OS with a CMake port and C++20 compatible compiler, should work as well.

• Linux (and other Unix systems like MacOS):
  • Install CMake and Git (different commands based on your distribution)
    • Fedora: sudo dnf install cmake git
    • Arch: sudo pacman -S --needed cmake git
  • git clone https://github.com/mikolajlubiak/memory
  • cd memory
  • mkdir build
  • cd build
  • cmake ..
  • cmake --build .
  • ./memory
• Windows (Terminal):
  • winget install Git.Git
  • winget install Kitware.CMake
  • git clone https://github.com/mikolajlubiak/memory
  • cd memory
  • mkdir build
  • cd build
  • cmake ..
  • cmake --build .
  • .\memory
• Windows (Visual Studio):
  • winget install Git.Git
  • winget install Kitware.CMake
  • Open Visual Studio and click "Clone a repository"
  • Under "Repository location" type/paste: https://github.com/mikolajlubiak/memory
  • Click "Clone" and select the folder inside UI
  • Wait for the project to setup, press F5, or run the project from UI

Gameplay

• First, select your preferred options.
• Move around using arrow keys.
• Select a card using enter.
• Players take turns; if your selected cards don't match, it's the next player's turn.
• At the end, the player with the most matched cards wins.
• If you want, you can save the current game state and load it later.

Contribution

For the purposes of this project, I added functionality to the library I use. I wanted the memory board grid to update in real time as the slider value changes. There was no way to do that, so I quickly studied the library's source code and added that feature myself. I achieved this by making the slider call a callback function each time the slider value change. I've made a pull request to the upstream, original library, and it has been merged.
