R-Type
This project involves building a game engine.
To show the use of it we have reproduced three game:
- Solo R-Type
- Networked R-Type
- Physical demo (a little reproduction of Flappy bird)
Project architecture
The project is divided into four main parts:
- Runtime
- Editor
- Client
- Server
Runtime: It is this part which contains the game engine and the network lib.
Editor: With this project, create your own games easily thanks to an easy and easy-to-use graphical interface! How to use editor
Client: If you're creating a network game, use our client so you can connect directly to your server! How to use client
Server: Every network game must have a server managing the players ! How to use server

How to install
For non developer/user
You can download the latest installer, for windows or linux here.
This installer contains Server, Client, Editor & Runtime (obviously) !
For developer
Firstly you need to install vcpkg and set the VCPKG_ROOT environnement variable to the directory where you installed vcpkg. The steps depends on your operating system.
Then you can do as follow:
mkdir build
cmake --preset=default -S . -B ./build/
cmake --build ./build/
cd build
# to launch the client
./rtype_client # with a .exe at the end on Windows
# to launch the editor
./rtype_editor # with a .exe at the end on Windows
# to launch the server
./rtype_server # with a .exe at the end on Windows
If vcpkg is not found, you might need to add the path to vcpkg to the PATH environnement
If you want to build release:
mkdir build
cmake -S . -B build --preset=release
cd build
cmake --build . --config Release
What is difference between default and release ?
The default preset builds the project in debug mode, allowing easier debugging. However, this mode can cause slowdowns in the runtime.
For a release version, use the release preset!
How to play to our RType ?
To play to our game, you need to put content of the r-type-game folder on the same folder of server/client you want to launch.
Then, you just have to launch the server/client to be able to play!
