Official repository for Epsilon Engine.
Epsilon Engine is a next-gen, multi-platform, general purpose game engine.

Epsilon Engine© is a multi-platform, next-gen, on-development engine especifically designed to build high quality games and simulations. It uses Vulkan (previously OpenGL© 4.5) capabilities to deliver stunning graphics with great real time performance. It has been under development since 2015, and has constantly been catching up with the latest realtime, 3D techniques.

Screenshots and more detailed information is available on [my Webpage](http://imanolfotia.com/epsilon_engine)

Installers and binaries will be available soon

## Building

### Windows

* You'll need a working **C++ compiler**, either **MSVC** (Visual Studio) or **MSYS2 MinGW/Clang** will work.
* **LunarG's Vulkan SDK**, which you can download [here](https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home#windows) (be sure it's in the Path)
* **CMake GUI** (optional)

**Clone the repo**

```
git clone https://github.com/ImanolFotia/Epsilon-Engine.git
```
```
cd Epsilon-Engine
```
```
git submodule init
```
```
git submodule update --remote
```
#### Build
Now you can either configure your project using CMake or CMake-GUI if you are using MinGW, or open Visual Studio IDE and open the project as "CMake Project"

`
Be careful, Visual Studio might decide that the primary project is 'EpsilonSharp.sln', this incorrect, as this is an Editor module, choose Epsilon.dll instead.
`

### Linux

* You'll need to install **LunarG's Vulkan SDK**, which you can download [here](https://vulkan.lunarg.com/sdk/home#windows) (be sure it's in the Path)

**Clone the repo**

```
git clone --recursive https://github.com/ImanolFotia/Epsilon-Engine.git
```

```
cd Epsilon-Engine
```
