ScuffedCraft

Ever wanted to play a Minecraft clone on the Nintendo Wii? Well here is a scuffed version, everything is scuffed from the textures, to the font and to the code. This is why the project is affectionally called ScuffedCraft.

ScuffedCraft is a totally open source voxel game written in C, minor updates are tested primarily via Dolphin, although releases are tested on a homebrewed Nintendo Wii. note, this project is not affiliated with Nintendo.

IT WORKS ON REAL HARDWARE

Build instructions

# Pull the repo
git clone https://github.com/LawG4/Scuffedcraft.git
cd Scuffedcraft

# Install and build all dependencies
# For Linix and mac:
sudo -E bash scripts/init-repo.sh
# For Windows:
bash scripts/init-repo.sh

# Build ScuffedCraft
make

# Run ScuffedCraft on Dolphin. On WSL make sure to edit scripts/sc_env.sh first
bash scripts/run.sh

For Windows and most likely Mac, I cannot automatically install the dependencies. This is because Windows doesn't have a package manager, Mac has homebrew and it might work if you're lucky. Luckily on Windows there's a graphical installer, so you'll be okay. That's why we don't need sudo on windows, since we're not installing anything for you, there's also the fact that msys2 doesn't have sudo...

If you want to install everything yourself, or you're using an unsupported platform, I am working on detailed manual instructions.

Gameplay features

• Big plane loaded in, that you can fly around.
• Infinitely loads flat terrain
• Works on real hardware!!!!
• That is it at the moment.

Development Goals

Do you want to help contribute to the code base? Here's a list of features I'm planning to add, and it'd be lovely if you'd like to help! Also feel free to go absolutely wild and implement whatever you want!

• Switch mesh from a linked list of faces to automatically reallocated array of faces
• Test the Wii to see if there is a benefit to using quad primitives instead of triangular
• Storing and loading world files
• Seeds that dictate how a terrain is created
• Entities
• Multiple controller support
• Controller abstraction
• Logging
• Collision
• Mesh freeing

Patch notes

0.0.2 in progress

• Restructure the makefile, firstly to make it easier to understand. Secondly so I can understand the build process better as I was relying on a Grrlib template.
• Supplying bash scripts to init the repo
• Automatically generate a texture atlas for the standard blocks

0.0.1

• Major refactor of the codebase to a more expandable and modular structure
• Added chunk memory management - Allocate a fixed size for the currently rendered chunks and then dynamically switch the chunks in and out of memory (Currently we're not actually changing the chunk but just the world matrix since all the terrain looks the same)
• Added an extraordinarily simple logging and retrieval system
• Removed Collision code because it was not inline for the expandability I wanted
• Abstracted block based functionality out of the rendering system
• Removed Cock.png (I had a testing image which was to make sure I could map textures and I forgot to remove the test image)
