Mief

Mief is a Pong clone written in Rust.

WORK IN PROGRESS: Please report any issues and wishes on GitHub.

Usage

1. Installation:
   1. Install Rust
   2. Download Mief: git clone https://github.com/BMeu/Mief.git; cd Mief
2. Run Mief: cargo run --release

If you want to display the current frames per second (FPS), you will have to (compile and) run Mief with the display-fps feature: cargo run --release --features display-fps instead.

Instructions

The goal is pretty simple: prevent the ball from leaving the field on your side. Each player controls a handle (player 1 the left one, player 2 the right one). Move the handle up and down to return the ball to the other player.

Currently, Mief only supports an endless mode - just play as long as you want. The game starts immediately after starting Mief, and if you miss a ball, the next one will start immediately in the center of the field. If you want to start a completely new game, you will have to quit and restart Mief.

Controls

• Player 1:
  • Up: W
  • Down: S
• Player 2:
  • Up: Up
  • Down: Down
• Quit: Esc

Future

• Repeatedly increase ball and handle speeds
• Adjust field size when resizing the window
• Do not immediately start the game and new balls
• Customizable settings
• Add a main menu, in-game instructions, settings, ...
• Select game mode: endless, reach x points, difference of x, ...
• Add difficulties (e.g. speed of handles and ball, size of handles, multi-ball, freely move handles)
• Add a 4-player mode: square field, player on each side
• Add controller support
• Add computer players
