Path Travelling Game in C++ using Graphics

In this Article, I will share code about creating a path travelling game in C++ using Graphics. I have used Dev C++ and Code Blocks compiler for testing this code. If you want to know how to setup code blocks for graphics watch this video

Description:

In this code,

• First of all I have printed Instructions on graphic screen about How to play the game. outtextxy function is used to print text on graphic window.
• After that I have created the path using line function.
• After that I have defined conditions where Lines are, If user stays in between those lined boundries, and keep pressing the buttons A(up), dot . (down), L(left), Z(right). The Circle on the screen keeps moving in that specific direction.
• If the User reaches center of the path, It wins, If it touches any line before reaching that, It loses.
• Clock function is used to record how much time user takes to play the game, and it displays the time on console at the end.

 int x=125,y=125,key;
 //print this text on screen
 outtextxy(100,0,"PRESS ANY KEY TO SOLVE THIS BHOLBHALAYA");
 outtextxy(100,20,"Z to move right");
 outtextxy(100,40,"L to move left");
 outtextxy(100,60,". to move down");
 outtextxy(100,80,"A to move up");

}

Output
