# pge

Simple looping game engine for Pebble. Available on
[NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/package/pebble-pge).


## Installation

`pebble package install pebble-pge`


## Features

- Automatic looping of developer-supplied per-frame logic and rendering.
- Up to 30 frames per second.
- Implement only your game code - `AppTimer`, `LayerUpdateProc`, `Clicks`,
  `Window` and `main` abstracted away.
- `PGESprite` base object to implement game entities.
- Basic collision checking between `PGESprite`s, GRects, lines and points.
- Isometric rendering of rects, boxes and textures.
- Basic game title screen template.
- Simple highscore mechanism.
- WebSocket-based client-server abstraction.


## Basic Template App

To begin a new game watchapp, begin with the template file in `/docs/template.c.sample`:

```c
/**
 * This is the bare minimum to make a looping game with PGE!
 */

#include <pebble.h>

#include <pge/pge.h>

static void game_logic() {
  // Per-frame game logic here
}

static void game_draw(GContext *ctx) {
  // Per-frame game rendering here
}

static void game_click(int button_id, bool long_click) {
  // Process click events
}

void pge_init() {
  // Start the game
  pge_begin(game_logic, game_draw, game_click);
}

void pge_deinit() {
  // Finish the game
  pge_finish();
}
```
