A skeleton project to start your SDL2 journey
- Includes SDL + libraries:
- Image - Loading of common image types
- TTF - Loading and rendering of TrueType and OpenType fonts
- Mixer - Loading and mixing of various audio formats
- Net - Network communication
- As well as those other helpful libraries
- {fmt} - Implementation of C++20's std::format, available now
- Dear ImGUI - Simple immediate mode user interface
- NativeFileDialog - File dialogs that work under Linux, Win and Mac
- Game: The base class for your game
- Runs from start to the end of execution and calls HandleEvents(), Input(), Update(), and Render() on the current GameState
- Has a prioritzied HandleEvent method that is processed before the GameState events
- Has two ways of showing msec/frame (which is the same as 1000/FPS, so a higher number means its running slower)
- GameState: The base class for your different game states
- Can dynamically load and unload its assets etc. on activation/deactivation with Init() and UnInit()
Either Game and GameState can initiate a state switch by calling SetNextState( number ) or game.SetNextState( number ), the change will happen after the frame has finished processing.
