The resources and source code for my Youtube series on creating a game engine using Apple's Metal Api

2etime Game Engine

Hello, world! Welcome to the 2etime Game Engine Repository. Here you will find all of the source code from my past tutorials on youtube. https://www.youtube.com/2etime

Getting Started

In order to run the code, all you really need is x-code. Simply find the project you want to run and double click the .xcodeproj file. This will open up the entire project, where you can view, edit, and hell even optimize the engine.

I have listed all of the project files from each episode of the tutorial at the bottom of this readme.

Folder Structure

• BuildAlong:

  • Random Code Projects I do with the tutorials via streaming.

• Community:

  • For you to add cool projects to and share with others.

• Full Current Project:

  • The latest episodes code. Should be up to date with the last episode I did on the series.

• Helpful Files:

  • Files I have done in the series (keynotes, cheatsheets, etc)

• Playcode:

  • A place for me to put random work I am doing for you to learn with.

Contributing

Since this is an ongoing tutorial series, it wouldn't really make sense for you to contribute to the episode files.

However, if you use the engine to build out something badass... Feel free to add that to the Community folder, and submit a Pull Request. If it is something really cool, I may even feature it in one of my tutorials :)

None. Feel free to use it anywhere. I do not care. If you want to put my name in there somewhere, cool! If you don't, cool! This is for everyone to learn / use.
