Speed Typing Maze

This is my first complete project written in C++. It is a small game built to study the language and get hands-on experience with 2D graphics rendering using SFML.

About

Speed Typing Maze is a 2D game where you navigate a player through a maze by typing directions into a text input. Instead of pressing arrow keys, you type up, down, left, or right and press Enter to move. The player slides in the chosen direction until hitting a wall. The goal is to reach the exit before the timer runs out.

How to play

• Press Enter on the menu screen to start.
• Type a direction (up, down, left, right) and press Enter to move.
• Reach the exit tile before time runs out.
• If you run out of time, press Enter to restart or Escape to quit.

Requirements

• C++17 or later
• SFML 3

Building

Compile all .cpp files and link against SFML:

g++ -std=c++17 main.cpp Game.cpp Maze.cpp Player.cpp -lsfml-graphics -lsfml-window -lsfml-system -o SpeedMaze

Then run:

./SpeedMaze
