plutoengine

My hobby game engine. This repository unifies all my previous Pluto repositories.

How to use Pluto

Quick start

Download the demo project open it in IntelliJ IDEA.

Gradle

repositories {
   mavenCentral()

   maven {
      name = "Vega"
      url = uri("https://vega.botdiril.com/")
   }
}


dependencies {
   implementation group: "org.plutoengine", name: "plutocore", version: "22.2.0.0-alpha.0"
}

or for Gradle Kotlin DSL

repositories {
   mavenCentral()
   
   maven {
      name = "Vega"
      url = uri("https://vega.botdiril.com/")
   }
}

dependencies {
   implementation("org.plutoengine", "plutocore", "22.2.0.0-alpha.0")
}

Versioning

All submodules share a version number for simplicity reasons.

Since version 20.2.0.0-alpha.0, PlutoEngine uses a combined version of semantic versioning and calendar versioning, the first number denotes the year.

Therefore, the version format is always YY.MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-prerelease.

Only major and year version changes will bring breaking API changes, except for pre-release versions, which may introduce breaking changes at any time. Pre-release versions will never increment the minor or patch version numbers.

Usability status of submodules

Safe submodules

PlutoCore - Stable
PlutoFramebuffer - Stable
PlutoMesher - Stable
PlutoShader - Stable
PlutoTexture - Stable
PlutoSpriteSheet - Stable, some features are unfinished
PlutoDisplay - Stable, collision API nowhere near completion
PlutoUSS2 - Stable
PlutoLib - Mostly stable

Unstable submodules

PlutoGUI - Recently rewritten, the API is highly unstable
PlutoRuntime - Somewhat tentative, the module API has been rewritten and might contain bugs
PlutoAudio - Somewhat usable, unfinished

Current priorities

See NEXT_RELEASE_DRAFT.md for details.

To be fixed

[ Features or bugs that should be fixed ASAP ]

Implement gradient variation support for Libra fills
Improve code quality in PlutoGUI

Very high priority

[ Implemented in the current release. ]

Improve image loading capabilities, possibly rewrite PlutoLib#TPL

High priority

[ Implemented in the next release. ]

Finish PlutoAudio
- Depends on the stage system
Expand upon the Color API
- Color mixing and blending
- Color transformation
- High-performance serialization

Normal priority

[ Planned for an upcoming release. ]

The collision system for PlutoStatic

Low priority

[ Items not required immediately, planned to be implemented eventually. ]

Allow multiple running instances of Pluto
- Alternatively, if this deems too difficult to implement, prohibit the creation of more than one instance per JVM to avoid issues
A networking API
Re-add support for external mod jars to the ModLoader
- This feature requires a full rewrite and possibly a complete overhaul
- Mods should have limited execution levels, for example restricted file access or disabled native library loading (this is probably not possible)
