Isometric demo game using cute framework
This is very bare bones game at the moment, it has an editor to create levels.
Majority of the game's data is setup in /data/meta/*.json from entity components to campaigns.

Project

Project uses ECS and deserializes json to attach components to entities, check under src/assets/assets.c to adjust any deserialization.

Sprites

You can change out the sprites for tiles and units, tile size is calculated at start up time to walk through all the tiles to find out how big they are.
Tiles need to all be the same size otherwise you'll get the wrong draw offsets between rows/columns.
Current tiles are 32x32 but this should work with any other tile size, this has been tested with Kenney Sketch Town Expansion Set which has tiles at 256x352.
Units if they are not correctly placed on top of the tile, you will need to create a aseprite slice called origin with the offset changed, check data/sprites/cleric.ase as an example of this.

Editor

Game includes an editor, to create new brushes you'll need to create a new json file.
Check under data/meta/, examples of units are baldy.json, enemy_range.json, enemy_charger.json
Anything with an editor block that includes a category of tile, unit or object will be added to the editor brush list.
There isn't an editor for campaigns, this must be typed out in json, check example under data/meta/campaign_0.json.
Every campaign includes a credits block so you can reference creators and any art and music used for your campaign.

Editor has 3 modes
Settings is to specify level name, file, music, background and level size.
Brush is to place objects into the level. Elevation lock controls are at the bottom left, you can set your max and min elevation limits.

Switch is to map connections between entities to tiles, this is to create dynamic terrain deformations, elevators, bridges, doors, etc.

Build

run build.bat

Notes

Currently only tested on windows with msvc.
If there are any problems with other platforms, it might be due to using minicoro.h and not having a stackful coroutine supported.
