An extendible WebGPU game and simulation engine for fun, games and research. Some of the current (code) features include:
- ⚡ WebGPU renderable abstractions
- ⚡ Flexible render graph for crafting render and compute pipelines
- ⚡ Simple, expressive material system for crafting custom shaders and materials
- ⚡ Gameplay simulation layer system for adding layered, modular functionality
- ⚡ ECS system for more efficient processing, using TypedArrays where possible
- ⚡ Simple, context-based input system, allowing you to set up different input schemes and contexts
- ⚡ Built-in PBR shaders
- ⚡ Auto instancing and draw batching of meshes using a specialized mesh task queue
- ⚡ Compute task queue for easily submitting compute shader work
- ⚡ Helpers for loading GTLFs, tracking performance scopes, named IDs, running frames and more.
Make sure you have the latest version of NodeJS installed. Clone this repository and make sure to npm install to get all the package dependencies.
> git clone [email protected]:Sunset-Studio/Sundown.git
> cd Sundown
> npm installWith the project cloned and all package dependencies installed, you're ready to run the project. There is an example app.js that is included from the top-level index.html file. Feel free to replace this with your own experiments or entry points.
To run the development project in a browser, use the npm dev command
> npm run devTo run the development project in an electron instance, use the npm devtop command
> npm run devtopYou can package and distribute builds for the web or for desktop with the help of Electron Forge.
To package for the web, just run the npm build command.
> npm run buildThen copy the resulting index.html file and assets and engine directories into your site's root.
To build executable electron packages, use the provided npm make command. This will create executable outputs in a top level executables directory.
> npm run makeSundown is available for free under the MIT license. You can use and modify the engine for individual or commercial use (a reference or mention is still appreciated!)
