# This branch is planned to be deprecated and is no longer maintained and **Elypso engine** is being remade on the 'indev' branch. Follow that if you want to see the latest currently unstable changes.

**Elypso engine** is an OpenGL C++ 20 game development engine and it uses several libraries listed in [the library file](LIBRARIES.md).

All changes will be listed at the [trello page](https://trello.com/b/hbt6ebCZ/elypso-engine) for each engine version, look at the pre-release task cards to see details for each pre-release.

The documentation for **Elypso engine** will be found at the [official website](https://elypsoengine.com) in the near future so please look there for information, this README file will not cover how to install or use this program.

[Elypso hub](https://github.com/Lost-Empire-Entertainment/Elypso-hub) is not included in this repository, it is required for normal engine operation, but the [releases](https://github.com/Lost-Empire-Entertainment/Elypso-engine/releases) provide it in its latest functioning format. So if you want to compile from source you have to also download Elypso Hub from its own repository.

### False positives from Windows Security

If this is your first time running the program then Windows may throw false positives like trojan or other "security threats". Follow [this Microsoft tutorial](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/add-an-exclusion-to-windows-security-811816c0-4dfd-af4a-47e4-c301afe13b26) to exclude the repository folder from Windows Security scans.
