Building the Code

Each chapter's code is tested and works on both Microsoft Windows and Apple macOS.

To compile on Windows, install Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 Community (https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/). During installation, select the "Game Development in C++" workflow. In each Chapter directory, there is a corresponding ChapterXX-windows.sln file to open.

To compile on macOS, install Xcode from the App Store. Each chapter has a corresponding ChapterXX-mac.xcodeproj file.

Code for Chapter 7 and beyond uses the FMOD API for audio. This requires a separate installation from (https://www.fmod.com/download). Download and install version 1.09.x of the FMOD Studio API (newer versions are untested). On Windows, install FMOD to the default directory. On Mac, copy the contents of the FMOD package into External/FMOD.
