Hibis Engine - Feature TODOs

Core Module

Base

• Base Renderer class
• Base Physics class
• Figure out how scenes should be handled
• Split other sections into seperate modules (renderers, physics)
• Application class (where the main loop is handled)

2D/3D

• Texture loading
• Model loading

Audio Module

Base

• OGG and WAV support (do first)
• Soundfont and Midi support (ideal)
• MP3 (later, can just ignore)
• Loop audio (with timepoints)
• Modify sound/pitch of outputted audio

2D/3D

• Position-based audio

Hibis UI (NEEDS A NAME)

• GUI creation
• Text Object (rendering via FreeType2)

Aethiopicus (Vulkan renderer, 2D and 3D)

Base

• Window creation (via GLFW)
• Basic deferred renderering system
• Render present
• Clear renderer
• Figure out how the renderer should even work
• (DO FOR A VERY LATE VERSION) Replace GLFW with a custom window creator to reduce bloat (I will not be using most of GLFW's shit)

2D

• Texture drawing
• TileMaps
• TileMap Culling

3D

• Model drawing
• Model Culling (hiding what you can't see)
• Level of Detail (3D ONLY)

Hibis Physics (NEED A NAME)

Base

• Physics Shape creation
• Option to allow for Physics Shapes to be able to be drawn (on by default, both compile time and run time, turn off at compile time via a flag (-DNoPhysShapeDraw=1?)) (official releases will include PhysShapeDraw capabilities)

2D/3D

• Raycasting
• Collision via raycasting
• Space type-specific shapes

Examples

• Example: UI test
• Example Game: Megaman clone (external repo)
• Stress test using sprites
• Stress test using models
