Rusterix

Rusterix is the core game engine powering Eldiron, an open-source creator for classic RPGs.

Overview

Rusterix provides a complete game engine with a client-server architecture, a software rasterizer, and an integrated scripting VM.

Software Rasterizer — Tile-based and polygon rendering with texture mapping, lighting, and distance fog. Now superseded by SceneVM as the GPU-based renderer
Client-Server Architecture — Separate server and client modules communicating via messages for clean separation of game logic and rendering
Entity System — Entities with attributes, pathfinding, and behavior trees driven by a stack-based scripting VM
Map System — Region-based maps with sectors, linedefs, and tile layers
Scripting — Stack-based VM for entity behaviors and game logic, with host-callable functions for interacting with the game world
UI Widgets — Built-in widget system for HUD elements, menus, and in-game UI
Shader Language — Includes Rusteria, a procedural shader language for texture and material generation
