EyeEngine-Cpp

FOA, sry for my poor English.

What is Eye Engine?

Eye Engine is my first Real-Time 3D Game Engine learning project.

There are two editions:

• Rust Edition. (suspend development until I found game-dev job.)
• Cpp Edition.

They are completely independent and have different architecture & development plan!

As I say, Building games above this engine is not the first level target! The main purpose of those projects is helping me to learn modern 3D Game Engine, Graphic API & SL and practice Computer Grahpic theory.

About Cpp Edition

I will build it from the "bottom layer", such as Entry Point / Logging System. So, it will add advanced features slowly.😶‍🌫️

Getting Started

Cpp Edition only support Windows + OpenGL yet, make sure you have the correct env.

1. git clone --recursive https://github.com/fseeeye/EyeEngine-Cpp.git
2. Open this repo by Visual Studio. (Recommanded using Visual Studio 2022)
3. Hit F5 to run the Game Sandbox Example Project.

Dev Guide

• update submodules: git submodule update --recursive --remote.
• use commitizen commit changes.

• Level Format
• Tools
• Scripting

Mainly Used Librarys

• glfw : multi-platform library for OpenGL, OpenGL ES and Vulkan, which provides a simple, platform-independent API for creating windows, contexts and surfaces, reading input, handling events, etc. The only regret is that GLFW doesn't support DirectX.
• glad : modern OpenGL wrapper.
• glm : header only C++ mathematics library for graphics software which is like GLSL spec.
• ImGui : amazing Graphic UI lib.
• spdlog : fast, multi-threading supported, C++ logging library.
• stb_image : single-file image loader.

Dependence Binarys

• premake : perform build configuration tasks or generate project files for toolsets like Visual Studio, Xcode, and GNU Make.

Reference

• Hazel : Cherno have made a lot amazing Game Engine videos for that.
• Unreal : well-known Game Engine.
