Misa 801ac995e2 Fix VVVVVV-Man not warping horizontally
To exclude gravitron squares, the game excluded all entities whose
`size` was 12 or higher. The `size` of the player when they transform
into VVVVVV-Man is 13.

We have already inadvertently fixed VVVVVV-Man not warping vertically in
2.2. This was done with the previous room transition/warping code
refactors; the gravitron square conditionals were simply excluded from
the vertical warp code, because there's no situation where there would
ever be a gravitron square outside the screen vertically.

As with making rescuable crewmates warpable, I have yet to ever see
people use VVVVVV-Man in a custom level. It's not like they would want
to use it anyway; VVVVVV-Man is really, really buggy. And it's probably
better to make it less buggy, starting with this commit.

That being said, VVVVVV-Man's collision when warping horizontally is
really janky, so I still wouldn't use it.

How to Build

VVVVVV's official desktop versions are built with the following environments:

  • Windows: Visual Studio 2010
  • macOS: Xcode CLT, currently targeting 10.9 SDK
  • GNU/Linux: CentOS 7

The engine depends solely on SDL2 2.0.14+ and SDL2_mixer. All other dependencies are statically linked into the engine. The development libraries for Windows can be downloaded from their respective websites, Linux developers can find the dev libraries from their respective repositories, and macOS developers should compile and install from source (including libogg/libvorbis/libvorbisfile).

Steamworks support is included and the DLL is loaded dynamically, you do not need the SDK headers and there is no special Steam or non-Steam version. The current implementation has been tested with Steamworks SDK v1.46.

To generate the projects on Windows:

# Put your SDL2/SDL2_mixer folders somewhere nice!
mkdir flibitBuild
cd flibitBuild
cmake -G "Visual Studio 10 2010" .. -DSDL2_INCLUDE_DIRS="C:\SDL2-2.0.10\include;C:\SDL2_mixer-2.0.4\include" -DSDL2_LIBRARIES="C:\SDL2-2.0.10\lib\x86\SDL2;C:\SDL2-2.0.10\lib\x86\SDL2main;C:\SDL2_mixer-2.0.4\lib\x86\SDL2_mixer"

Note that on some systems, the SDL2_LIBRARIES list on Windows may need SDL2/SDL2main/SDL2_mixer to have .lib at the end of them. The reason for this inconsistency is unknown.

To generate everywhere else:

mkdir flibitBuild
cd flibitBuild
cmake ..

macOS may be fussy about the SDK version. How to fix this is up to the whims of however Apple wants to make CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT annoying to configure and retain each time Xcode updates.

Including data.zip

You'll need the data.zip file from VVVVVV to actually run the game! It's available to download separately for free in the Make and Play edition of the game. Put this file next to your executable and the game should run.

This is intended for personal use only - our license doesn't allow you to actually distribute this data.zip file with your own forks without getting permission from us first. See LICENSE.md for more details. (If you've got a project in mind that requires distributing this file, get in touch!)

A Word About Compiler Quirks

(Note: This section only applies to version 2.2 of the source code, which is the initial commit of this repository. Since then, much hard work has been put in to fix many undefined behaviors. If you're compiling the latest version of the source code, ignore this section.)

This engine is super fussy about optimization levels and runtime checks. In particular, the Windows version absolutely positively must be compiled in Debug mode, with /RTC enabled. If you build in Release mode, or have /RTC disabled, the game behaves dramatically different in ways that were never fully documented (bizarre softlocks, out-of-bounds issues that don't show up in tools like Valgrind, stuff like that). There are lots of things about this old code that could be cleaned up, polished, rewritten, and so on, but this is the one that will probably bite you the hardest when setting up your own build, regardless of platform.

We hope you'll enjoy messing with the source anyway!

Love, flibit
