Games by Elijah V.

This is a mono-repo I am working on containing many mini-games I am working on.

Building a game

You can build games in this project with cargo provided by Rust:

$ cargo run --bin game-name-here

That builds and runs a lightly optimized (but still debug) build of the game. For a fully optimized build add the --release flag:

$ cargo run  --release --bin game-name-here

Games in this project

All games can be found in the src/bin/ folder. There is a README in that folder with more info, and there should be a README in each subsequent game's folder with a rough design doc of that specific game.

What about examples?

I also have some examples which are meant to test out specific code or mechanics.

The distinction is basically if it has a menu it's a game, if it just runs it's an example.

Why a mono-repo?

For all of the reasons that mono-repos are good!

• Code can be re-used across multiple games easily.
• Code from one game can be easily referenced, copied, or forked.
• I can stare at my accomplishments in one place.

Mono-repos get a bad rap because they feel bloated, or can cause conflict when lots of people step on each other's toes. I am a solo developer, so none of those are really problems for me.
