# Rayku Engine
**Rayku Engine** is a basic 2D platform mini game engine built in C++ using [raylib](https://www.raylib.com/) as the underlying framework. It provides a simple and modular codebase designed for creating 2D platformer games, focusing on core engine functionality such as input handling, rendering, physics, and entity management. The name **Rayku** combines "Ray" from [raylib](https://www.raylib.com/) with "ku", inspired by the Korean word **구축** (*guchuk*), which means "to build" or "to construct". Rayku Engine represents a lightweight and modular engine built with raylib, designed for developers to build and create their own 2D games. The engine is intended as a foundation for further projects, emphasizing code-first development without a graphical user interface or editor.
## Planned Features – Rayku Engine (Full Version)
- Basic 2D physics with gravity, collision detection, and response
- Input handling integrated via raylib
- Support for tilemaps and sprites
- Camera control for 2D platformer style gameplay
- Audio playback support (music and sound effects)
---
> ⚠️ **Note:** The full feature set of Rayku Engine is currently **in development**.
> The current codebase serves as a minimal foundation and learning tool.
---
## Preview – Current State of Rayku Engine
Below is a screenshot of the current minimal implementation of Rayku Engine:
- Blue block → Player
- Red block → Enemy
- Green blocks → Platform tiles
- Yellow Blocks → Collectibles
---
> At this stage, the engine features a simple player, one enemy, and static platforms as part of its initial testing setup.
