A somewhat functional game engine with suppport for rendering and sound (currently). More functionality will be added as I find the will to work on it. Physics will be handled by Bullet3 once integrated fully.
Mahakam can be used by itself, simply by building and linking to it.
An editor application also exists, called Erebor, which includes a level-editor and asset manager among other game-making tools.
The best way to understand and use the engine is to build and run it, and then change around stuff to see how it affects the state.
Applications created with the engine can also be run in headless mode, using the --headless flag.
Running the editor can be done via Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code, via their respective debuggers. It can also be run using various files within the Erebor directory, namely: EreborDebug, EreborOptimized and EreborRelease. There are both bash and batch files for Linux and Windows.
Refer to the BUILDING.md file.
