Blazor Game Engine (hence BlazorGE), basic experimentation with a game engine/framework using Blazor.

BlazorGE

Blazor Game Engine - hence BlazorGE (pronounced like 'Blay' 'Zorj'), is a basic experimentation with a game engine (or more like a framework really) using Blazor. Currently we're going for something simple but modern, starting with 2D style stuff first - maybe might add some 3D stuff later. Trying to use standard design patterns and dependency injection (where appropriate).

This is just a fun project to experiment with Blazor and simple game design. Highly influenced by David Guida's Blazor game development series https://www.davidguida.net/blazor-and-2d-game-development-part-1-intro/ and bits of Monogame https://www.monogame.net/ and Monogame.Extended https://www.monogameextended.net/

Feel free to fork, submit pull requests, log issues or request/suggest features etc...

P.S. Make sure you have the latest Visual Studio 2022 version or you may get compile/runtime errors (currently requires .NET 8)

Current features:-

1. ECS (Entity Component System) design - sort of done
2. Asset loading - graphics done
3. Sprites - done
4. Easy to use - hopefully
5. Keyboard and mouse input, maybe touch eventually - keyboard done
6. Game screens (e.g. title, main game play etc...) - done
7. Basic canvas implementation - done
8. Several simple example games implementing all features - a few bits of part games
9. Any other suggestions?

Stuff to be done and/or improved

1. Better ECS system ;-)
2. Sprite animation
3. More/better demo games
4. More canvas methods
5. Better Blazor JS interop - DONE
6. Sound

Guide on how to run the demo

Can you provide a guide on how to run the demo?

Is this still active?

nice one!

hi @aventius-software ! Thanks for mentioning me in your readme, really appreciated :) Just FYI, I published a new library that helps deal with the HTML Canvas, maybe you can find it useful: https://github.com/mizrael/Blazorex
