Abstract

“Gridalonia” is a 3D video game in the style of tactical role playing games simplified to that of a board game, built in C++ using the OpenGL and SDL graphics libraries. Players control units on a 6x6 board and attempt to defeat an AI opponent by defeating all of the AI’s units. Gridalonia separates movement from input: the player presses a key and the model moves independently in real time. The player’s challenge comes from attempting to manage their defense, offense, and healing enough to retain their units while still defeating every enemy unit.
