I have compiled the project so that it can be executed without any issues 😊.

On Windows Command Prompt:

On Windows Powershell:

• Type the same then type .\Crawler.exe.

• Or go to that folder and execute the .exe file.

Starting the game: ▶

• Load the map with either "load Simple.map" or "load Advanced.map" command.

• Start the game by typing "play".

Info on the game: ℹ

First information: You are a character and have to escape dungeons where there is gold and monsters! Play the levels to escape!

Move the character, represented by an '@', starting on a 'S', by using the WASD keys and make your move around the map without crashing into walls '#' and battling with Monsters!

Edits of code: 📓

• 08/01/2021 - Fixed code so it passes all tests in Powershell and Visual Studio and changed the UI to look more appealing.
• 11/01/2021 - Fixed loading bug with the advanced map under new execution phase and loading it in after typing 'play' and polished the reset of variable on the replay feature.
• 12/01/2021 - Fixed bugs that messed with tests, although gold pickup doesn't work if you're on it, only works if you're next to it and updated user interface.
• 13/01/2021 - Fixed attack action where .Trim() would remove the ' ' and then replace it with no empty space so it wouldn't register attacking the monster.
• 14/01/2021 - For now if you move over the 'G' it will automatically increment gold counter but pickup stills works if next to the gold and pressing E, also ammended comments.
