Features

• Header-only: drag-drop into any project without any additional compiling required.
• All externals included in the framework itself.
• Provides core framework for quickly developing multimedia applications: Platform, Graphics, Audio layers.
• Provides custom utilities for math and generic data structures.
• Optional helper utilties are provided, such as OpenGL 2.0-style immediate-mode rendering, asset management system, and a data reflection utility.
• Supports a growing list of platforms:

  Windows

  ,

  OSX

  ,

  Linux

  Vulkan

  /

  DX12

  /

  Metal

  .
• All core layers can be fully swapped out with custom user implementations.
• Large collection of examples for quickly getting started.
• Official framework used for all Game Engineering YouTube videos.

Basic Example

A simple c99 'Hello World' example using gunslinger:

#define GS_IMPL
#include 

gs_app_desc_t gs_main(int32_t argc, char** argv)
{
   return (gs_app_desc_t){0};
}
</gs.h>
