Jeez

Game Engine with ThreeJs renderer

Build

Run npm install followed by npm run dev or npm run build to generate the built library

Getting Started

1. Include jeez.js or jeez.min.js in your html or require it or import it.
2. Initialize Jeez with var jeez = new Jeez({container: <container name>}) where container is the id of the div inside which the THREE canvas will be created
3. Create an object that looks like this -

var state = {
  create: function() {
    var material = new THREE.MeshNormalMaterial(); // create a basic material
    var geometry = new THREE.CubeGeometry(10,10,10); // create a cube geometry
    var cube = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, material); // create a cube
    cube.position.z = -10; // set its position a little further away from the camera
    cube.rotation.x = 10; // rotate the cube
    cube.rotation.y = 10; // rotate the cube a little more
    this.camera.position.z = 10; // move the camera a little further back
    this.world.add(cube); // add the cube to the scene
  }
}

4. Add the newly created state to the state manager with jeez.state.add('main', state, true) // where the last argument starts the state automatically

Currently implemented

1. Rudimentary state manager
2. Render update with requestAnimationFrame with fallback to setTimeout
3. Extended THREE.Object3D to support update methods
4. Lights, with game.lights
5. Basic scalemanager
6. Asset preloading

Created mostly (copied?) by looking at what Phaser does, with a little bit of Cocos2d-JS.
