How are larger games organized?
- by Matthew G.
I'm using Java, but the language I'm using here is probably irrelevant.
I'd like to create an economy based on an ancient civilization. I'm not sure how to design it. If I were working on a smaller game, like a copy of "Space Invaders", I'd have no problem structuring it like this.
Game
-Main Control Class
--Graphics Class
--Player Class
--Enemy class
I'd pass the graphics class to both the player and enemy class so they could call graphics functions.
I don't understand how I'd do this for larger projects. Do I create a country class that contains a bunch of towns? Do the towns contain a lot building class, most contain classes of people? Do I make a path finding class that the player can access to get around? How exactly do I structure this and pass all these references around?
Thanks.
