[attempting] to build a game engine for the terminal using the ncurses module and c++ (or c, depending on how things go)). With help from the channel: https://www.youtube.com/@KayOScode
NOTE:
In its current state, the program can:
- Perform translations, rotations and enlargements to vectors
- Rasterise triangles
- Render aforementioned triangles
- Load in and subsequently render
.objfiles - Do all of the above using a shader to emulate a light source at a specified location
- and probably more, I can't remember
make run
making use of the make file in the root directory. Or you can compile yourself directly using gcc or something maybe.
You may need to make slight modifications to the code - this is likely just to change the imported packages for ncurses, which has a different version specific to windows. You'll also need to have the make CLI tool installed in order to make use of the makefile: https://medium.com/@samsorrahman/how-to-run-a-makefile-in-windows-b4d115d7c516#:~:text=To%20run%20Makefile%20on%20Windows,steps%20on%20your%20Windows%20system.
Then, you should be able to run:
make run
Don't take my word for it.
