Emotion is a cross-platform game engine written in C# with minimal dependencies, for me to make games in. The engine is more targeted towards programmers and is alternative to stuff like MonoGame, FNA, and Love rather than Unity.
A visual novel for Windows, Linux, and x64 Mac.
The version this game was built on is kept in the "adfectus-backup" branch.
A roguelike deckbuilder for Windows and Linux, with an Android version built but not published.
The version this game was built on is kept in the "EtA" branch.
- OpenGL 3.0 or higher supported hardware
- Or DirectX 11 if ANGLE is enabled
- Or a multi-core CPU if the Mesa software renderer is enabled
- WebGL 2.0 on Web
- Be able to run the Net 9 runtime.
- If older than Windows 10 you'll need the C++ Redistributable 2015 Update 3
- For Windows 7 you'll also need a specific security update KB3063858
- A supported platform:
- Windows 32 and 64 bit
- Linux 64 bit (Steam Deck works too)
- Android API 23+
- Or implement your own via PlatformBase :)
That's it.
It is recommended you develop with a cloned version of the Emotion repo linking 'Emotion.csproj' and 'Emotion.SourceGeneration' in your solution. This way you have the most control over your code.
By default Emotion has no external dependencies, any third party code is copy-pasted and statically compiled inside the project. Note: All third-party code used is also modified in some way, so updating it to newer versions isnt very straight forward.
Include the "LICENSE THIRD-PARTY" file from the repository in your exe when distributing.
