Alka

Game engine written in zig, compatible with zig version 0.8.0.

This engine does provide a toolset for you but generally you have to implement how they work and how should be.

For example if you want to use GUI, well you can and engine provides a tool for you but you have to implement how elements behave, draw, etc. There is no ButtonElement or TextBox, only Element. Same goes for the ECS too.

You may need these packages to compile the engine(tested on ubuntu 21.04) libx11-dev libxcursor-dev libxrandr-dev libxinerama-dev libxi-dev libgl-dev
