 # Game-HCI

> Formerly known as "JmeGamepad" and "Superior-Extended-Engine" or "SEE".

## [Demonstration of the library's capabilities.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gp2JJ-PCI8c) ##

##### How to implement it into your Android project :

Step 1. Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories :

```gradle

	allprojects {

		repositories {

			...

			maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }

		}

	}

  ```

Step 2. Add the dependency :

```gradle

	dependencies {

	        implementation 'com.github.Scrappers-glitch:Superior-Extended-Engine:1.x.x'

	}

```
