Cat N' Mouse 2D Game built with C++ and OpenGL.

Cat N' Mouse features:

• Made in C++ and OpenGL with custom game engine and OpenGL shaders/meshes
• Randomly generated maze (generated by custom implementation of randomized depth-first search algorithm)
• Intelligent pathing (custom implementation of A* algorithm)
• Complete game (win/loss conditions, pause, etc.)

2. Install GLFW and OpenGL.
3. Run MinGW make

cd cat-n-mouse
mingw32-make

4. Run the game

./catnmouse.exe
