331uw13/PixelEngine

Engine to create pixel games

PixelEngine

An engine that draws pixels and textures on screen using OpenGL and GLFW.

Work in progress.

Features yet to be added:

• Optimize frequently used functions

• Low resolution to mimic old games better

• Small color errors for rendering (because I think it may look kinda cool)

• Add sound later

Instructions for building and using the engine

The project is not in its complete state, so many changes could be introduced.

1. Install required dependencies

   • For Debian-based systems:

     apt install libglew-dev libglfw3-dev

   • For Arch-based systems:

     pacman -S glew glfw-x11

     Or:

     pacman -S glew glfw-wayland

2. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/331uw13/PixelEngine.git
   cd PixelEngine

3. Build and test the project

   cmake .
   make
   cd testing
   chmod +x build.sh
   ./build.sh main.c
   ./a.out
