Isetta Game Template

This is the repository which you can use as the base to make your own game with Isetta Engine.

Setup Steps

Choose one of the following two options to set up:

Download this repo as a zip
Retarget the solution:
- Open up the .sln
- Right-click the solution (GameTemplate Solution)
- Select Retarget Solution, then just select ok
In /GameTemplate/GameTemplate, create a user.cfg file, we will introduce how to use it later.

Create a .cpp file to start the engine, copy:

#include <EngineLoop.h>

int main() {
    Isetta::Application::Start();
    return 0;
}

Download zip file of the engine (includes .dll and .h)
- Extract in .sln directory
Project Properties:
- Configuration Manager > Active solution platform: > <Edit...> > Click x86 > Remove
- Configuration Manager > Active solution configuration: > <New...> > Put "ReleaseEditor" in name > OK
- (Make sure you do the following changes with "All Configurations" selected as Configuration)
- Debugging > Change Working Directory to "$(TargetDir)"
- C/C++ (you will need a .cpp file to view this section)

  - Post-Build Event > Command Line > Add:
```
XCOPY /Y /R /S /I "$(SolutionDir)Engine\Resources\*" "$(TargetDir)Resources"
XCOPY /Y /R /S /I "$(ProjectDir)Resources\*" "$(TargetDir)Resources"
XCOPY /Y /R "$(ProjectDir)*.cfg" "$(TargetDir)"
```
Configuration files
- Create a config.cfg or copy a premade one (see Engine/Resources/Config/)
  - No .cfg in Engine/Resources/Config/ currently
