C++ game project

This assessment will demonstrate that you understand the theory and implementation of C++ in the context of game development. You will use the fundamental building blocks of software engineering to construct a small game. This process will help you develop larger and more complex games as you progress through the course.    

Instructions:

Design and implement a virtual slot machine game in C++.

The game should start the player off with $2000, and should display the following main menu:

Player's chips: $2000

1) Play slots

2) Quit slot machine

3) Credits

The game should include the following functionality

-          If the player chooses 1, the program should ask the user to enter their bet. The program should check that the bet is legal.

-          The program should then generate three random numbers, in the range of [2, 7] and output them to the screen.

-          If all three numbers are "7", then award the player 10x their bet.

-          If all three numbers are the same, (but not "7"), then award the player 5x their bet.

-          If two out of three numbers are the same, then award the players 3x their bet.

-          Otherwise the player loses their bet.

The program then calculates the player's current chip count and displays it on the screen.

-          Finally the main menu is displayed.

Build quality:

The source code is required to display the flowing features:

Free of

-          Build warning at warning level 3 for all build targets.

-          Build errors for all build targets.

-          All intermediate files (.obj, .pdb, .ilk, ...... files etc.)

Commenting, Naming, Structure and documentation:

-          Code formatting is consistent with good use of whitespaces, tabling and alignment.

-          Consistent and clear naming conventions are used.

-          Where necessary, comments should be used to clarify the purpose and use of data and functions. Comment is the context of this assessment will also be a demonstrate understanding.

-          Any necessary document should be included as separate Readme.txt file.

-         An electronic copy of the source code (.cpp), solution file (.sin) and project file (.vcxproj) is required. o Name the source code folder as: Source - Student Name o Name the solution as: SlotMachine.sln

Runtime Quality:

The source code is required to display the following features:

Free of:

o Bugs.

o Crashes.

Interface features:

The executable is required to provide an intuitive interface with the flowing features:

-          Provide clear instructions

-          Controls are clearly identifiable and intuitive while playing

-          Design and layout of the in-game interface makes effective use of screen space.

-          All game state information it clearly presented on screen.
