Pumptrump is a platform game developed by Francisco Moreno, Diego Sáez, Alba Posas and Francisco Mesas. Created with the idea of understanding and being able to develop a graphic project without prior knowledge of this part.

It will consist of a videogame where two, three or four players compete in a platformed scenario attempting to kill each other. They will be able to move left and right, jump between platforms, shoot bullets and protect themselves. Their objective is to hit the other player when he or she isn’t protected. Both players have 5 lives at the beginning of a game. When a player gets hit by the other player 5 times and runs out of lives, then he loses the game and the other player wins. We are going to use the language C++ for developing the program as it’s the language with which we feel more comfortable and because we are certain that it’s a language that, most of the times, guarantees a nice efficiency or performance. Moreover, we think that it is a language that will help us learn better how programs work in a (relatively) lower level. In the case of Java, for example, many things are already given by the language and we don’t fancy much that fact. Qt Creator will help us with the graphical interface and we’ll take advantage of Box2D, which is a library that implements the physics of the game. The game may be controlled via keyboard, a physical controller that we are going to make or a mobile phone (that could work either with Android, iOS or Windows Phone OS) with an app that we are going to develop. The game is thought to be played with two players and two computers, a computer per player, that communicate each other.
