* What is Kampf

  A game engine developed for 2d Games employing the entity component

  game design pattern. Game scripting is done through the lua

  programming language.

  Currently, the kampf engine is in alpha and has been *discontinued*

  

  You can see an example of a game written in Kampf [[https://github.com/benzap/Kampf-pong/blob/master/src/pong.lua][here]]

* Compatible Operating Systems

  - Windows (mingw gcc 4.7+)

  - Linux (gcc 4.7+)

* Compiling

** Prerequisites

   Make sure to include all of the dependencies provided by each

   prerequisite

   All prerequisites must be on your environment path / Library path

   in order to compile correctly

   For Windows, Mingw should be on your path as well, along with with

   Msys. ex. /C:\MinGW\bin;C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\bin/ within *PATH*

   

   The easiest way to include the prerequisites, is to copy the

   resulting ./include, ./lib, and ./bin folders over C:/MinGW for

   the Windows binary folders for each. (Lua being an exception)

   For Windows, the prerequisites must be i686-w64 versions

*** Lua

    NOTE: you can also use LuaJit

    - Website :: [[http://www.lua.org/download.html][here]]

*** SDL2 (Version 2+)

    - Website :: [[http://www.libsdl.org/download-2.0.php][here]]

*** SDL_Image (Version 2+)

    - Website :: [[https://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_image/][here]]

*** SDL_TTF (Version 2+)

    - Website :: [[https://www.libsdl.org/projects/SDL_ttf/][here]]

** Win32

#+BEGIN_SRC

  cd src

  make

#+END_SRC

   

   - Make sure that SDL2.0 and Lua5.1 are on your path. The makefile

     might need to be edited to accomodate luajit instead of just

     plain lua. Typically I place all of my libs and includes within

     the mingw include/ and lib/ directory. In the future i'll

     probably be providing snapshots of the latest compiled libraries

     and includes.

   - cd to src/

   - make

   - that's it!

     If you want to look at the current test cases, run 'make tests'

     and then run 'make runtests' to start running tests

     NOTE: the kampf_interpreter runs at one point, which requires

     you to type 'quit()' or 'exit()' in order to continue running

     the other tests

** Linux

   - Install the dependencies, you know what to do

* Dependencies

  - Msys

  - SDL2.0

  - SDL_Image (2.0+)

  - SDL_ttf (2.0+)

  - Lua5.1 or Luajit2.0
