# TINS 2023

# Running

**Attention**: make sure the working directory contains the `src/assets/...` directory otherwise the application will crash (reporting a "FailedToLoadBitmap" error).

If you unzip the binaries package or build from sources this means that the root of the zip/sources is your working directory and you're executing `./zig-out/bin/tins2023` or `.\zig-out\bin\tins2023.exe`.

# Rules

## genre rule #41:

> Fable: all characters are animals.

The player plays as a lion, no further fable elements implemented.

## artistical rule #18:

> Iridescence.

The collectable stars are iridescent. Over time they slowly change or faster when your viewing angle changes.

## artistical rule #32:

> All Dialog must be implemented comic-book bubble style.

On (partial) completion or game over of the level you get a question to continue or not presented in a text bubble.

## technical rule #65:

> Implement a chart (bar chart, pie chart, any kind of chart).

The progress of the level (number of stars collected) is displayed as a tiny pie chart in the top right corner.

## bonus rule #24:

> Dynamic Duo - If you make your game suitable for two players, you may skip one rule.

Did not make use of the bonus rule.
