Building from Source

# Clone this repo
git clone https://github.com/ozkriff/zemeroth
cd zemeroth

# Assets are stored in a separate repo.
# Zemeroth expects them to be in `assets` directory.
git clone https://github.com/ozkriff/zemeroth_assets assets

# Compile a release version (debug builds give low FPS at the moment)
cargo build --release

# Run it
cargo run --release

WebAssembly

cargo install cargo-web
./utils/wasm/build.sh
cargo web start

Then open http://localhost:8000 in your browser.

The WASM version of the game uses not-fl3/good-web-game:

Note that good-web-game is not really GGEZ's backend, but a separate web-targeted engine with a similar API that @not-fl3 uses for his prototypes.

Zemeroth uses good-web-game for its web version as a quick-n-dirty immediate solution until a proper WASM support arrives to GGEZ (there're no plans of making good-web-game some kind of official GGEZ backend).

The currently implemented subset of GGEZ API is quite limited and while it may be used for something else that Zemeroth, it will probably require a lot of work to do (contributions are welcome ;) ).

Dependencies

The key external dependency of Zemeroth is ggez game engine.

This repo contains a bunch of helper crates:

• zcomponents is a simple component storage
• ggwp-zgui is a simple and opinionated ggez-based GUI library
• ggwp-zscene is a simple scene and declarative animation manager
