Welcome to Cocoa Engine, this is a 2D game engine independently developed by me, Gabe Ambrosio (AKA GamesWithGabe). The engine is currently in development, for the most recent stable build please follow the following steps on the master branch.
In order to run this, you'll have to run a few commands. First, open up a powershell window in a directory you would like to contain the engine source code. (The engine currently only supports Windows, so this will not work on Linux yet).
Next run these commands:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ambrosiogabe/Cocoa
cd Cocoa
build.bat
These commands will clone the repository into your directory, update the submodules (this step takes awhile because of all the code).
After that, simply double click the VisualStudio solution file that was (hopefully) generated, and then once it opens press F5 to run. If all this works properly, you should be presented with a window saying to create a project or open a Cocoa project.
NOTE: This only works with VisualStudio 2019 right now, I will add support for more versions and more editor hopefully in the near future.
If you are using this and happen to have any features you would like to request, please submit an issue at: https://github.com/ambrosiogabe/Cocoa/issues . Prefix the title with FEATURE REQUEST, and provide as much information as possible.
This engine is still very much in development, there are no official releases yet, however bug reporting is still very helpful so I can keep track of everything. If you encounter any bugs please report them at the issues tab of the repository at: https://github.com/ambrosiogabe/Cocoa/issues .
