Overview

Scion is a 2D game library made in rust.

Please note that this project is in its first milestones and is subject to change according to convience needs and big features coming. You can use Scion as you want although I just made this open source to serve the community not to be a competitor to the current Rust game engine eco-system.

Why this project ?

Well, firstly because it' a good way to learn.

Then because a lot of projects these days focus on adding a lot of feature pretexting feature parity with big editors or game engines. Here I focus on the features that I really need for my projects. I won't add things just because they are cool, but because I need them in a game project

Scion relies on a short list of principles that also serves as a guideline.

Goals

Strong focus on 2D only.
Easy and Fun to use.
Clean and readable source code.
Tiled integration

Non goals

Ultra/over optimized code and performances. For this, please try other engines or build your own !

Why ECS ?

Today, ECS is like a 'magic' word for games, game libs and game engine. But ECS is not and must not be considered as a universal answer to multiple questions. I believe that ECS has its strength and its weaknesses. The choice of it here is made because the main target games of this lib at its start were to be able to make :

a complex city building game.
a pkmn fan game with real time trainer progression and wild pkmn.
granular network packets representation && dot simulation games.

Notable dependencies

These are the dependencies this project is relying on. Thanks to these awesome communities, we are able to build this kind of tiny projects.

winit and wgpu (windowing and multi backend rendering)
legion (Entity component system)
ultraviolet (Maths)

Comments

fix(tetris): move 2 lines down

I don't understand why do you remove index to line : if a block is on a line upper than removed line, it should move down. This is independent of removed line index in 'lines2' array.

I have tested with 2 and 3 lines removed and it work.

If you are ok with that, I can also refactor this code to rename variables like lines2.

Animation convenience constructors

I would like to add :

Animation::running(...) -> Create an animation with 'RUNNING' status Animation::looping(...) -> Create an animation with 'LOOPING' status

And delete the 'loop at start' boolean in the new fn

Implement the Center pivot point for rectangle

Description

Currently, we can set the pivot point only for Square shapes. We need this feature also on Rectangle

How to do this ?

The file to modify is : https://github.com/grzi/scion/blob/main/src/core/components/shapes/rectangle.rs

The square with working center pivot point is here : https://github.com/grzi/scion/blob/main/src/core/components/shapes/square.rs

Plans for 0.3.0

The goal here is to plan the next milestone (0.3.0) with a theme and a list of needed features. Starting from now, the milestone planning will also contain convenience issue detected when coding the mini game for the POC of the previous milesone.

Bounded concurrent messaging queue
Create an internal Messaging Systems that allow :

Concurrency (multi consumers, multi producers): This is needed because we don't want to duplicate the events.

Topics: One topic is dedicated to one event type.

Bounds : Optionally set a limit per topic. Convenience to be able to have a limited in memory size for the topics.

Pull based consumers: Consumers call the topic to get the new events using an offset. Each consumer has a pull size limit to know the maximum event it can pull in one call

Pausable: When pausing the game, switching layers, some topics may want to stop receiving && accept pull request from consumers

That's all, then we use it to track event in the game engine and allow users to create topics, producers, consumers with either convenience functions or macros.

Handle input pressure in the input controller

Describe the feature

When retrieving if an input is pressed, it would be interesting to be able to also retrieve a gauge that represents how long it has been pressed.

Why do you need this feature ?

It's usefull to handle acceleration and conditional actions depending on the pressure type
