framework2d

Yet another 2D game framework for the desktop. Created on 14/7/21

Features:

OpenGL:

Contains wrappers around basic OpenGL objects (vertex buffers, index buffers, 2D textures).

Shaders:

Also has a shader class that supports loading vertex and fragment shaders from a string or a file.

Platform Abstraction:

Furthermore, it contains platform-specific abstractions such as a combined window+openGLcontext object and an simple input system that handles keyboard and mouse. This is handled by SDL2 in the background.

2D Renderer:

Finally, the framework includes a small renderer that can handle individual files of sprites and spritesheets (loaded with stb_image). It also allows 3D rotations unlike other 2D renderers in libraries such as SDL or Allegro.

GUI:

Framework is integrated with IMGUI. An object abstraction around IMGUI context creation is also included.

Requirements:

  • SDL2
  • GLEW

For the future:

Todo:

  • Add functionality for rendering quads filled with just colors (quite simple) Added since 15/7/21
  • Add support for mouse input Added since 15/7/21
  • Allow option for pivot points for rotation Added since 16/7/21
  • Add audio playing Added since 27/7/21
  • Allow option for texture filtering method.
  • Revamp the trash project structure
  • Unspaghetti the source code
