A game engine developed for my sophomore year at DigiPen

DCEngine

This repository holds my DigiPen's GAM 250 Engine, "Daisy Chain Engine", which has now been discontinued (as of Summer 2016). I am leaving this repository as a testament of everything I learned during my Sophomore year at DigiPen.

My GAM 250 team, "Moonward". The developer team:

• Allan Deutsch (Producer)
• Christian Sagel (Technical Director, Engine Programmer)
• William Mao (Graphics Programmer)
• Jason Jorgensen (Gameplay Programmer)
• Gabriel Neumann (Gameplay Programmer)
• John Myres (Lead Designer)
• Connor Tilley (Designer)
• Blaine Reiner (Physics Programmer)

And our esteemed artists:

• Mariah Millard
• Abigail Snider

This ECS engine me and my team wrote, "Daisy Chain" had very humble beginnings. It first started as a reverse-engineering attempt off Allan Deutsch's AJEngine., as well as DigiPen's Zero Engine. It uses the following libraries for its main systems:

• Window/Input: SFML
• Graphics: OpenGL (Core Profile)
• Audio: FMOD Studio
• UI: dear imgui
• Scripting: Zilch
• Serialization: JSON

There is a roadmap of sorts that was used during the engine's development:

I also documented my day-to-day progress in a log of sorts:

(If you know a better alternative for logging something like this, that's easy/fast to use let me know!)
