JamTemplateCppSFML

About

This is my JamTemplate for C++17. It will compile C++ code for native (Win, Linux) and web (webassembly) games .

Some games created with this JamTemplate are

• Burning Glyphs (Web, 7DFPS 2020)
• Tricky Tracktor (Native, FrankenGameJam 2021)
• Grounded (Native, FrankenGameJam 2020)

and some more at https://runvs.io/Games.

Setup

Windows

1. go to ext folder and extract sfml-zip
2. create build directory "build" parallel to src
3. open command line (win+r "cmd")
4. navigate to the just created build folder
5. type cmake ../

Windows 32 bit

There should be no need for a 32 bit executable anymore. However if strictly required: Perform the steps from above except:

• 1. Get the win32 zip from the sfml website
• 5. cmake -A Win32 ../

Web

I run it with WSL, but every system capable of running wegassembly/emscripten should work.

1. emcmake cmake -DENABLE_WEB=ON ../
2. on the first run emmake make (do not pass -j, otherwise emscripten will get hickups with pulling libraries)
3. on consecutive runs: emmake make -j
4. http-server . to start a webserver locally.
5. open browser on http://127.0.0.1:8080/ to test locally

Mac

For mac os you have to install cmake and sfml via homebrew: brew install cmake sfml If you use another package manager or want to install the dependencies yourself, you have to modify the paths in CMakeLists.txt.

Cmake options

All of those options can be set to ON or OFF via the cmake commandline

• ENABLE_UNITTESTS
• ENABLE_STRESSTEST
• ENABLE_WEB

e.g. calling cmake ../ -DENABLE_UNITTESTS=ON -DENABLE_STRESSTEST=ON
