C code Maze with Movement and Basic Monsters

Was perusing the net today, as I do every day, look for Tutorials or Source Code to post here and came across a excellent (can’t wait to try this at work tomorrow, shhhh don’t tell my boss =) tutorials/source code called Part I: Drawing the Map, Walking Around, Basic Monsters and Attacking.

The code is simply laid out, and it basically creates a small maze, lets the player walk around and even attack monsters. Its amazing how few lines of code are required to create such a thing. I know you can probably do it in like 10 lines with Pygame or Python, but C is the first programming language I learned, and I still find it elegent.

Actually it all comes down to C (for me at least, I am sure others might tell you differently), every language that I learned after learned C came a little simpler because of C.

C++ Annotations Version 7.1.0

If you do a search for C / C++ Tutorials on any of the major search engines, this page will show up somewhere in the top 10 list. It is a all round great guide, but they say it is best for someone who is knowledgable of C and looking to move on to C++.

They have several different versions (PDF, HTML, etc) which can be found HERE

If you are looking to move up and learn about C++, go visit the C++ Annotations Home Page
