GoLang 2D Game Library based on SDL 1.3. This can be used to easily write games using Go (www.golang.org) using SDL 1.3 for hardware-accelerated rendering (OpenGL or DirectX9). This will also be the core engine for the MMORPG "Pokemon Universe" (https://code.google.com/p/pokemon-universe)

go2d's Introduction

To use this framework, you will need to install SDL 2.0 (formerly SDL 1.3), SDL_ttf and SDL_image.

###Windows Users - read this!###
If you don't want to spend time compiling SDL, but just start on your game right away, you can download MinGW.zip and place the contents in your mingw directory
################################

Installation of SDL 2.0 (note: OpenGL renderer needs OpenGL libraries, e.g. mesa on Ubuntu):
1) hg clone http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL
2) autogen.sh
3) mkdir build && cd build
3) 	../configure --prefix=/usr for Ubuntu
	../configure --prefix=/mingw for Windows/MinGW
4) make
5) make install

Freetype 2.0 (dependency for SDL_ttf):
1) download the latest version from http://sourceforge.net/projects/freetype/files/freetype2/
2) autogen.sh
3) 	./configure --prefix=/usr for Ubuntu
	./configure --prefix=/mingw for Windows/MinGW
4) make
5) make install

Installation of SDL_ttf:
1) hg clone http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL_ttf/
2) autogen.sh
3) 	./configure --prefix=/usr for Ubuntu
	./configure --prefix=/mingw for Windows/MinGW
4) make
5) make install

Installation of SDL_image (note: PNG loading also requires libpng and libz):
1) hg clone http://hg.libsdl.org/SDL_image/
2) autogen.sh
4) make
5) make install

Installation of Go2D:
1) go get github.com/papplampe/Go2D/sdl
2) go get github.com/papplampe/Go2D/go2d
3) For Examples:
	go get github.com/papplampe/Go2D/test/basic
	go get github.com/papplampe/Go2D/test/gui
	In case you get an renderer error try to SetD3D to false
	
To install both sdl and go2d:
	go get github.com/papplampe/Go2D/...

Usage:
Check out /skeleton and ./test for examples.
