A full-fledged cross-platform 2D Game Engine.

1. Reference the Project/Assembly.
2. Create an initializer to load initial and additional game assets.

   GameEngine.AddInitializer(() =>
   {
       // do stuff
   
       return false; // return true if error occured in initializer.
   });

3. Start the engine by calling GameEngine.Run().

   GameEngine.AddInitializer(() =>
   {
       // do stuff
   
       return false; // return true if error occured in initializer.
   });
   GameEngine.Run();

MiniEngine supports the use of a packed asset file that acts as a read-only virtual file system.

1. Build and install the MiniEngine.Tools.CLI project and install as a dotnet tool.
2. Create a .indexfile file in your project directory. Files and folders specified in this file are set to be packed by the CLI tool.
3. Run metool pack on the project directory. The tool will produce a assets.mea file that contains your game assets.
4. Place and include this file on your project's output directory.
5. Reference a file by calling Resources.GetResource(string path). You may also opt for implicit conversion via strings when calling functions that uses MemoryResource.
