Rizz (ریز) is a tiny, multi-platform, and minimal game/app development framework, Written in C language. Inspired by The Machinery and sokol libs. It's currently a work in progress, features and improvements will be added constantly to different platforms.

For more detailed information about design principles, architecture and basic usage of the framework, please read the document rizz Architecture and Basic usage, which is also available in docs/guide

This is not a game engine, it's a relatively low-level framework for programmers to build their own engine/renderer/physics on top of it. The core of rizz does not and will not implement any rendering techniques/physics or impose any specific entity system to the user. It just provides the basic building blocks for game developers. Other features will be implemented as plugins.

• Portable C code: C11 (gcc/clang), C99 (msvc) compatible code, designed with data-oriented mindset.
• Plugin system: Engine has a small core. Many functionalities are implemented through plugins.
• Minimal Dependencies: No external/large dependencies. Only a handful of small dependencies included in the source.
• Hot-reloading of C/C++ code: Plugins/Game code are all hot-reloadable with some restrictions and rules.
• Fiber based job system: Simple to use fiber-based job system.
• Reflection: Provides simple reflection system for structs, enums and functions along with built-in JSON serialization/deserialization.
• Async Asset Manager: Flexible reference counting asset manager. New asset types can be added by third-party code to the manager.
• Hot-reloading of assets and shaders: All in-game resources and shaders can be hot-reloaded.
• Virtual file system: Async read/write. Directories or archives can be mounted as virtual directories.
• Support for coroutines: Coroutines can be suspended for N frames or N milliseconds.
• Custom crash handling: Custom callbacks for crashes. Along with Crash.dmp file creation (windows only)

• Multiple graphics API support: Metal (iOS, MacOS). OpenGL-ES 2/3 (Android). Direct3D11 (Windows), OpenGL 3.3 (Linux)
• Portable shaders: Write shaders once in GLSL, toolset will automatically translate the shader to other APIs.
• Multi-threaded GPU command-buffer: Draw commands can be submitted by multiple threads with staged API.
• Compute shader support (Experimental): Experimental compute-shader support, currently only under Direct3D, more backends will be added.

Many of the engine features are implemented in the plugins, visit each link to read their README:

• imgui: Dear-imgui plugin with some utility API
• 2dtools: 2D rendering tools: sprite, sprite animation, font drawing with TTF support
• sound: Simple sound system. Audio mixer and 2d-sounds.
• input: Input system with gamepad and touch support
• 3dtools: 3D rendering tools: support for GLTF 3d models, basic debug primitive creation and drawing
• astar: A-star path-finding implementation plugin
• collision: 2.5D/Isometric Collision detection plugin
• utility: misc utility functionality. Currently, spline and noise generator
• basisut: basis_universal texture format support (asset type name: "texture_basisu")

• Remote Profiler: Integrated Remotery for remote debugger/command console and log viewer.
• Graphics API introspection: Debug application level graphic calls and objects.
• Memory Debugger: Debug and monitor memory allocations for all subsystems.

• Windows
• Linux
• MacOS
• Android
• RaspberryPI
• iOS

rizz is designed to run on all major mobile (iOS, android), PC (Windows, Linux, MacOS) and web (WebASM) platforms. But as the engine is in it's early age, the current platforms are built and tested:

• Windows: Tested on Windows10 with visual studio 14 2015 update 3 (Win64).
• Linux: Tested on ubuntu 16 with clang (6.0.0) and gcc (7.3.0). Package requirements:
  • libx11-dev
  • libxrandr-dev
  • libxi-dev
  • libasound2-dev (if you are planning to build sound plugin)
  • libglew-dev
• MacOS: Tested on MacOS High Sierra - AppleClang 9.1.0
• Android: For android, there is a python script android.py which takes care of preparing android project structure, building the code and packaging the final APK. please read the begining of android.py.
• RaspberryPI: Tested on RPi1 ModelB Ubuntu-jessie (gcc Raspbian 4.9.2). Package requirements:
  • libasound2-dev (if you are planning to build sound plugin)
• iOS: For iOS, there is a python script ios.py which takes care of initializing iOS project

• BUNDLE (default=0, android/ios=1):

  • BUNDLE=0 indicates that rizz is built as an executable host which runs the game by rizz --run game.dll (on linux it's rizz --run ./game.so). Recommended for development, where you need reduced binary sizes and live-reloading of game code and plugins.
  • BUNDLE=1 Builds rizz as static library. To link and bundle rizz and other plugins with a single stand-alone executable, so there will be only one executable and bundles rizz and all the plugins you specify. to build the bundle properly, you should set these cmake arguments on configure:
    • BUNDLE_TARGET: target name of the executable you are trying to build (first example: -DBUNDLE_TARGET=01-hello)
    • BUNDLE_TARGET_NAME: if the cmake target and the actual name of your application differs, use argument to address that. (first example: -DBUNDLE_TARGET_NAME=hello)
    • BUNDLE_PLUGINS: list the plugins that is required by your application, separated by semicolon. (first example: -DBUNDLE_PLUGINS=imgui)

• ENABLE_HOT_LOADING (default=1, android/ios=0) Enables hot reloading of assets and monitoring the assets directories. Doesn't work on mobile OSes.

• ENABLE_PROFILER (default=0/debug, default=1/release)

• BUILD_EXAMPLES (default=1, android/ios=0) Build example projects in /examples directory.

• MSVC_STATIC_RUNTIME (default=0): MSVC specific. Compiles the RELEASE config with '/MT' flag instead of '/MD'

• MSVC_MULTITHREADED_COMPILE (default=1): MSVC specific. Turns on multi-threaded compilation (turns it off with Ninja)

• CLANG_ENABLE_PROFILER (default=0): Clang specific. Turns on -ftime-trace flag. Only supported in clang-9 and higher

Examples Basic examples are included with this repo, in examples directory:
