cocos2d-x ========= [](https://travis-ci.org/cocos2d/cocos2d-x) [cocos2d-x][1] is a multi-platform framework for building 2d games, interactive books, demos and other graphical applications. It is based on [cocos2d-iphone][2], but instead of using Objective-C, it uses C++. It works on iOS, Android, Windows Phone, OS X, Windows and Linux. cocos2d-x is: * Fast * Free * Easy to use * Community Supported How to start a new game ----------------------- 1. Download the code from [cocos2d download site][4] 2. Run `setup.py` 3. Run the `cocos` script Example: $ cd cocos2d-x $ ./setup.py $ source FILE_TO_SAVE_SYSTEM_VARIABLE $ cocos new MyGame -p com.your_company.mygame -l cpp -d /home $ cd /home/MyGame ### Build and run new project for android ### $ cocos run -p android -j 4 ### Build and run new project for iOS ### $ cocos run -p ios ### Build and run new project for OSX ### $ cocos run -p mac ### Build and run new project for linux ### if you never run cocos2d-x on linux, you need to install all dependences by the script in **cocos2d/build/install-deps-linux.sh** $ cd cocos2d-x/build $ ./install-deps-linux.sh Then $ cd /home/MyGame $ cocos run -p linux Run $ bin/MyGame ### Build and run new project for win32 ### $ cocos run -p win32 Main features ------------- * Scene management (workflow) * Transitions between scenes * Sprites and Sprite Sheets * Effects: Lens, Ripple, Waves, Liquid, etc. * Actions (behaviours): * Trasformation Actions: Move, Rotate, Scale, Fade, Tint, etc. * Composable actions: Sequence, Spawn, Repeat, Reverse * Ease Actions: Exp, Sin, Cubic, Elastic, etc. * Misc actions: CallFunc, OrbitCamera, Follow, Tween * Basic menus and buttons * Integrated with physics engines: [Box2d][5] and [Chipmunk][6] * Particle system * Skeleton Animations: [Spine][7] and Armature support * Fonts: * Fast font rendering using Fixed and Variable width fonts * Support for .ttf fonts * Tile Map support: Orthogonal, Isometric and Hexagonal * Parallax scrolling * Motion Streak * Render To Texture * Touch/Accelerometer on mobile devices * Touch/Mouse/Keyboard on desktop * Sound Engine support (CocosDenshion library) based on OpenAL * Integrated Slow motion/Fast forward * Fast and compressed textures: PVR compressed and uncompressed textures, ETC1 compressed textures, and more * Resolution Independence * Language: C++, with Lua and JavaScript bindings * Open Source Commercial Friendly: Compatible with open and closed source projects * OpenGL ES 2.0 (mobile) / OpenGL 2.1 (desktop) based Build Requirements ------------------ * Mac OS X 10.7+, Xcode 4.6+ * or Ubuntu 12.10+, CMake 2.6+ * or Windows 7+, VS 2012+ * Python 2.7.5 Runtime Requirements -------------------- * iOS 5.0+ for iPhone / iPad games * Android 2.3+ for Android games * Windows Phone 8+ for Windows Phone games * OS X v10.6+ for Mac games * Windows 7+ for Win games Running Tests -------------------- Select the test you want from Xcode Scheme chooser. * For OS X / iOS ``` $ cd cocos2d-x/build $ open cocos_tests.xcodeproj ``` * For Linux ``` $ cd cocos2d-x/build $ ./install-deps-linux.sh $ cmake .. $ make ``` Run Samples ``` $ bin/cpp-empty-test/cpp-empty-test or $ bin/lua-empty-test/lua-empty-test ``` You may meet building errors when building libGLFW.so. It is because libGL.so directs to an error target, you should make it to direct to a correct one. `install-deps-linux.sh` only has to be run once. * For Windows Open the `cocos2d-x/build/cocos2d-win32.vc2012.sln` * For Android ``` $ cd cocos2d-x/build $ python ./android-build.py cpp-empty-test -p 10 $ adb install ../tests/cpp-empty-tst/proj.android/bin/CppEmptyTest-debug.apk ``` Then click item on Android device to run tests. Available value of `-p` is the API level, cocos2d-x supports from level 10. Contributing to the Project -------------------------------- Did you find a bug? Do you have feature request?
