Roadmap

Add Examples

• Examples are the best documentation one can get. No examples == no documentation

Rendering

• Metal Depth Buffer
• Sprites alpha based sorting + rendering back to front
• Metal shadow buffering (when trying to write in a part of the buffer being used and the frame hasn't ended yet, the renderer should reference a different buffer to not overwrite), this feature is automatic on D3D11 and OpenGL.

General

• Create a build tester for all platforms.

Android

• Make update actually use delta time.

AppleOS

• Make update actually use delta time.
• Find a way to use threads on asset loading (Problem was mutex wasn't being able to lock).
• Find a way to put assets on Xcode Project by using a script.
• DLL Support?

PSVita

• Make update actually use delta time.

Scene Graph:

Building a game without a scene graph is really hard. Implementing it is a real need for medium/big games. That will require:

• Base game object class which can enter on the graph
• TransformableObject
• RenderableObject
• SceneGraph serialization/deserialization

The strategy is still not very clear, but it is a care that will be taken for creating a consistent way to solve problems.

GUI:

1. Building grounds

• Label
• Button
• RadioButton
• ToggleButton
• TextureButton
• LabelButton
• HorizontalScrollbar
• VerticalScrollbar
• Dialog

2. More involved widgets

• Console
• Message Dialog
• Open/Save File/Folder Dialog
• Folder View

3. Complex Widgets

• TreeView
• DropdownMenu
