A modern port of the MS-DOS game Crusher developed by Soleau Software.
Crusher is an action puzzle game where you must complete multiple tasks in order to win. You are in a dungeon and must collect 10,000 points before receiving your first objective. To collect points, you must collect diamonds and crush your enemies. While doing so, you must avoid running out of oxygen by collecting oxygen tanks, and you must break through walls using TNT that you find along the way.
The game is played in a 25 room map. Once you get the 10,000 points and receive your first objective, you learn why you are really here: a maiden in distress named Eve. But there is more - play the game to find out all the various objectives you must complete to win it.
- Linux.
- SFML version 2.5 installed in the system.
- A C++ compiler (I have used g++).
The steps for building the game are:
- Go to the root of the project and execute

The development version has output to the console, shows the FPS in the window and the code does not have the compiler optimizations of the release version.
