🚀 Installation & Usage

🛠️ Prerequisites

• C++ Compiler (e.g., MinGW)
• OpenGL & GLUT libraries configured
• Windows OS (required for <mmsystem.h> audio playback)

🖥️ Running via Code::Blocks

1. Open the test3.cbp project file.
2. Ensure GLUT is correctly linked in your build settings.
3. Press F9 to Build and Run.

⚠️ Note: To hear sound effects when running directly from your IDE's bin folder, ensure the .wav files are in the same directory as the executable.

💻 Manual Compilation (CLI)

Using MinGW, run the following command to link the required libraries:

g++ main.cpp -o app.exe -lglut32 -lopengl32 -lglu32 -lwinmm -lgdi32

After building, ensure your assets/ audio files sit alongside the compiled app.exe before executing.
