Forge

A game engine which purpose is to be a sandbox for various algorithms a.k.a. educational purposes.

Goals:

• As less external code as possible (as long as it makes sense/it's not boring to implement) - hence no helpers like DirectXTK
• OOP and DOP hybrid - ECS where it makes sense.
• Long term project with slow, but constant progress.

Unit Tests have been moved to separate, private submodule. They're obviously not needed to run an application.

Current state:

v0.04

• ECS 2.0
• Debug shapes + drawing wireframe
• Animation component + system
• Physx integration
• Finally... skybox

v0.03

YouTube video :

• Spot lights and directional lights
• Orthographic camera
• Shadows for point, spot and directional lights
• Alpha blending
• Self made RTTI
• FBXes loading
• Skeletal animations

v0.02

• Deferred shading
• IMGUI debug with G-Buffer preview
• Smooth runtime switch between Forward<->Deferred mode thanks to one, macro based Uber shader
• Separate rendering passes for Opaque, Transparent (not implented yet) and Non-lit (for drawing in-world debugs) objects

v0.01

• ECS Systems, Components and Entities
• Forward rendering
• Ambient + point light with blinn-phong
• Loading obj models (using tinyobj), materials and diffuse textures
• Self-implemented math
• Imgui integration
• Tracy integration
• D3D11 API completely decoupled from engine
