APG

A simple framework for getting started writing an RPG using Modern C++ (C++14), SDL2 and tmxparser to load maps made in Tiled.

The design is heavily inspired by LibGDX.

The name comes from saying the letters "RPG" out loud; "Arr Pee Gee".

What's Included

• An easy entry-point with clearly defined functions to override and implement to make your own cross platform game.
• SXXDL: C++14 unique_ptr wrappers around common SDL2 structs (e.g. SDL_Surface, SDL_Window, SDL_Renderer) which let you stop having to worry about cleanup.
• A simple framework for managing classes in an "error state", useful for loading and initialising.
• A SpriteBatch class similar to the one in LibGDX which aims to minimise draw calls for 2D sprites.
• Two renderers for TMX maps; one using pure SDL2 SDL_Renderer functions, one using pure modern OpenGL (core context).

How To Use

Clone the repository and navigate to the folder, then:

mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make -jN all # where N is the number of cores you have

cp -r ../assets .
make SDLRenderTest #  a test of the SDL2 map renderer
make GLRenderTest # a test of the GL map renderer

then, install as you wish.
