A C++ Game Engine

Installation

The source files for this engine is configured using premake. The premake file is included in this repo under the third-party/bin directory. Each project has a premake5.lua file that contains the configuration definitions for the specific project.

Use BuildProject.bat to run premake and setup of the projects.

Platform Support:

• Windows (Development done in Visual Studio)
• Mac
• Linux

Game Smith Editor

This is a simple application that links with the Game Smith Engine DLL to enable creation of assets & content for a game compatible with the Game Smith Engine. This is currently in a sandbox like state and can be used to visually test out user code

Game Smith Test Suite

This is a google test suite application that runs a suite of unit tests made to test the correctness of code in the Game Smith Engine

Test Zone

This is another sandbox application that links with the game smith engine. This is not a controled enviornment like the editor and can be used to run any code that interacts with the engine.
