Stack Overview

Antistatic's engine is split into two parts: A native portion written in C, and a higher-level piece written using TypeScript which runs on Node.js. The graphics API is OpenGL.

While minimal, some libraries were used to smooth things over. Starting with the native side:

• SDL2 handles window management, receiving input from keyboard/mouse/XInput, and the OpenGL context
• GLEW takes care of managing OpenGL function pointers
• FreeType is used for font rendering
• libusb allows direct access to GameCube controller adapters
• OpenAL Soft plays audio
• libvorbisfile decodes audio files
• stb, while not a library, is a handy set of C header files used for its HashTables

And some npm packages, too:

• gl-matrix is a fantastic, lightweight matrix and vector library
• Fluent provides the FTL file format, used for translations, and language negotiation
