Void Engine is a small game-engine of mine. It aims to be usable, even without knowing OpenGL.

Currently implemented features include:

• OpenGL backend
• Basic lighting
• Model loading via Assimp
• That's about it.

Yes, there are. But, I created this game engine to get a sense of what it takes to make a game engine. This includes, but not limited to, some sort of ECS, easy customizability, handling delta-time, camera systems, etc.

For that reason, I don't expect, nor recommend, anyone to use this. It is merely a learning experience for myself.

As of now, the building process has only been tested on Linux.

• C++11 compatible compiler.
• CMake v3.11+
• OpenGL 4.5+, can be acquired from Mesa or from your GPU-driver

Before anything else, you must checkout the third-party dependencies.

git submodule update --init --recursive

Start by making a build-folder, where the compiled code will end up.

mkdir build && cd build

Configure the build with CMake

cmake ../ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DVOID_ENABLE_EXAMPLES=ON

This is configure the build to compile examples, as well as the library itself. Now run make.

make

Now, the build folder will contain both the static-library libvoid.a, as well as the Examples-folder, which will contain executable examples.

./Examples/01-Core/Example01
