- Bi-directional text
- Right / center / left alignment
- Vertical text
- Modifying per-glyph properties
- ...and more!

GitHub - gamepopper/Candle: 2D lighting for SFML 3.0 2D lighting for SFML 3.0. Contribute to gamepopper/Candle development by creating an account on GitHub.

I've made a fork of the original Candle library with all the changes to migrate it to 3.0, including updates to CMake so you can clone and set up a project in as few clicks as possible.

Just in case any dev still has use for it. (hint hint @sfml.bsky.social)

So yeah, I am making a game again. An homage to Magnetic Joe, working title MagRider. Stupid name, yes, does someone have a better suggestion?

Made with C++, #SFML, and #TGUI, target platforms are Windows and Android.

I know this is going to be very niche...
Are you a C++ developer that uses the #SFML libraries in Visual Studio? Are you tried of creating projects manually?
Well I have the answer for you, my New-SFMLProject #PowerShell script!

Implemented custom collision bounds for characters, e.g. making only the feet collide. Really sells the forced perspective when you can partially overlap tiles "behind" the player! Makes you less likely to get stuck in narrow, horizontal gaps too.

Only possible thanks to miniaudio, which is truly amazing. SFML 3.1 will also bring a few great addition to the audio module.
