Two small example worlds built on the noa voxel engine.

Live demos:

• hello-world - a bare minimum world, suitable for building on top of
• test - a testbed world that minimally implements most engine features

To build and serve the examples locally:

(clone this repo)
cd noa-examples
npm install
npm start     # runs /src/hello-world
npm test      # runs /src/test

The start and test scripts serve each world via webpack-dev-server, so you should be able to find them at localhost:8080 or thereabouts.

There's also a build script to generate bundles into the docs directories.

Noa uses Babylon.js as its 3D engine, but references it as a peer dependency (so that game worlds can specify their Babylon version/modules). This means game worlds should declare a dependency on @babylonjs/core or similar, rather than loading in a prebuilt babylon script.

The noa engine is under active development, so this module declares its dependency directly on the source repo's develop branch (github:andyhall/noa#develop), so as to pull in the latest bleeding-edge build. If you want to hack on something stable you may want to change the dependency to noa-engine (to get the current stable build from npm), or a specific noa version/commit/etc.

If you want to hack on both the engine and a game world side-by-side, just clone the noa repo next to your game client then import it directly:

import Engine from '../../noa' // or wherever

This is preferable to editing your client's package.json or using npm link, as npm behaves weirdly when trying to resolve peer dependencies via path references or symlinks.
