Metal Gear 2D

This is my Windows vertical slice clone of the original Metal Gear (1987, MSX2), developed as my year 1 Block A project at BUAS. It was built completely from scratch with no external libraries—not even STL!

Features

• Custom TileMaps, designed in Tiled, for level backgrounds, enemy patrols, and collision detection
• Broad & Narrow Phase Collision Detection with pixel-perfect precision
• Adaptive Music System that dynamically changes based on gameplay intensity
• Memory Management using only C++ References & Pointers, with zero memory leaks

This project was a deep dive into low-level programming, optimizing performance, memory layout, and collision accuracy to recreate the feel of the original game.

Keybinds will be shown in the console when you launch the game.
