This is a game about what the CMU students would talk in a bar, something they won't discuss in the class.. :P
In this game, texts are rendered at runtime. The process flow is:
- Load text data from asset, as
std::string, using UTF-8 format. - At runtime, load the TrueType fonts. Process using harfbuzz and FreeType, get an array of glyphs (in bitmap representation)
- At runtime, draw the bitmap as an OpenGL texture.
HiDPI screen support is implemented. Subpixel rendering is not supported yet (hopefully all the monitors will go 4K+ in future, in which case subpixel rendering will be obsolete).
Line breaking is handled manually at this moment, because handling linebreaks in an i18n-compatible way takes another dedicated library.
Font fallback is not supported now. As a result, in order to display non-latin text, we need to manually specify corresponding fonts.
Use the direction keys and Enter to make you selection.
