Game15

Qt5 cross-platform game for Windows and Linux. Made for fun, the rules are here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/15_puzzle. Algorithms for solving the position is present. For 2x2 and 3x3 game fields it solves for the minimum number of moves. For 4x4 and 5x5 for the optimal.
Read Linux build for Linux OS and Windows build for Windows respectively.

Linux build

Requirements

To run the project you need to install the Qt5 and GMP

Qt install. Install Qt in the /home directory, otherwise the paths to the Qt files will not be found

Note: Replace 'name' with the name of your executable file

1. Install Qt https://www.qt.io/download-qt-installer
2. Go to the download where our .run file is installed. Before we run it, we need to give permission to run it, using the command chmod +x 'name'
3. Run our executable file ./'name'
4. During the installation you can not install CMake, Ninja, Qt Creator components. However, it is necessary to select Desktop gcc 64 or gcc 32 for Qt5, otherwise the project will not build.

Easy build and run via .sh files

1. Run the console from the tools directory.
2. Install the necessary programs and build the project, using the bash build.sh command.
3. You can run the game with the bash game.sh command.

Build and run

1. Install compiler for C++ and build system with the commands

• Ubuntu/Debian/Linux Mint
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install g++ cmake
• Fedora
  sudo dnf install gcc-c++ cmake
• CentOS и RHEL
  sudo yum install gcc-c++ cmake
• Arch Linux
  sudo pacman -S gcc cmake

2. To build a project, you need to make a "build" directory in the project folder with the command mkdir build
3. Then move into it with the command cd build
4. Next, you need to run cmake .. command inside "build" directory.
5. Finally, use the make command to compile, link the project, and create an executable.
6. Now you can run the application with the ./Game15 command.

Windows build with Qt Creator

1. Install Qt5 to any folder on the C drive https://www.qt.io/download-open-source
2. In addition to the default packages, choose the MSVC compiler for your system (64 or 32 bit)

Run

Now run projects with Qt Creator and build them with the MSVC compiler compiler
