My Game Engine!


In this post I’ll be showcasing Pixel Game Engine(PGE), my C++ game engine/library based on Ben Arnold’s Advanced C++/Graphics Tutorial series: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxCC9Ces1Yg&list=PLSPw4ASQYyymu3PfG9gxywSPghnSMiOAW&index=1
Before we begin, here’s a list of all the libraries that I used:

1) Window
Initializes libraries and creates a window

2) Input
The input manager handles all things related to input like key presses or window movement

3) Camera
Provides an easy interface to moving, resizing and scaling the content of the window.

4) Shader Program
Manages shader loading, compiling and linking.

5) Sprite Batching
All the sprites that share the same texture are drawn simultaneously which is significantly faster than drawing each sprite individually.

There are many more features that I didn’t showcase here and some of them have yet to be implemented.

Level Editor Progress The level editor is almost finished! Below you can see a screenshot of the new interface. Please note that not all tiles have been implemented yet and some textures are placeholders.

0.5.0 New Tiles! Here are some of the new tiles that will be added in 0.5.0. Also, the tile selection screen now displays the tiles in a more organized manner.

0.5.0 Keys And Locks This feature was suggested by a user. The next update will introduce different types of keys and locks for better level design. Each key will open a specifc lock. For example, a golden key will open a golden lock.

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

I have added rewards for quests so that villagers can give you something in return for your hard work helping them. 🥳

I want to know - what's your favourite quest reward?

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

My D&D art for my family so far (WIP if you couldn't tell)

I did this on my 3DS ^^ #Kirby
