Linux? about dangerous-dave-2-modification-edition HOT 8 OPEN

Linux support is planned, also planned Android support and possibly iOS support. There was already an attempt two years ago to do this through a QT, but she stopped. Now I am in search of a high-quality cross-platform rendering and network library. In current time I am considering QT and SFML. By the way, If you can give advice in this matter, I will be grateful.

That's great news!

Now I am in search of a high-quality cross-platform rendering and network library.

Most of the re-implementation of classic games are using SDL2, but perhaps that is too low level.. You can also consider GLFW.

Thank you! Unlike SFML, GLFW don't have network support "from box", but SDL2 have that (similarly with sound suppor). I have already compared many libraries, but so far I have not found a better SFML. SFML have sound module, network module and graphics module. Also seems SFML to have Android and iOS support.

If you port to linux, you be my hero. ^__^

This issue will definitely be resolved with engine change to SFML.

Today project has migrate to SFML. If you want you can compile it for linux I think.

from dangerous-dave-2-modification-edition.

That's great news. I took a quick look and still need to check how it could be compiled either using Make or CMake, but that should be easy to fix, compared to port the engine 😄 .

Once we solve that, I strongly recommend to add some CI tests to make sure each commit compiles in different platforms.

If you can do it, please let me know. Thank you!
