README
Molten started as spare-time engine project, which I eventually intend to use to develop my own games without relying on other engines. Hopefully you'll find a use for it too!
While parts of this project will inevitably be a classic case of re-inventing the wheel, I'm treating it as a chance to gain more experience in the area of game engine development.

# Android
To build for Android you will need to install the Android workloads by running
```dotnet workload install android``` in command prompt or powershell.
If you're upgrading from a previous .NET version, you may also need to run this command again to update the android workload.
