Welcome to Orxonox Trac

Orxonox is an Open Source vertical scroller game programmed in C++,OpenGL and SDL. It's designed to run on all major platforms like Linux, MacOS X, Windows, Solaris. In the final stages it will support even network play. If we manage to be sober enough, this game shall definitly become the open-source genre-defining vertical scroller. Rulez!

Orxonox Tasks

There are some tasks concerning the orxonox project. Some of them are ideas or requirements, where you are free to design your own solution for a problem. Some others are just coding work, where all the designer work has already been done and you can begin directly with the implementation:

  • Hardcode Development Tasks:
    • Animation player to display explosions…
    • Particle engine to calculate big explosions - really fancy stuff
    • Sound engine to make the choir of angels sing
    • Clipping/culling to make the computer draw nothing, that we aren't looking at right now - implementation in C++, octrees etc.
    • Physics engine implementation and integration - quite a big project and very important
    • Material class - to have all the material effects like shiny, transparent, blending etc.
  • Development Extensions (less work, straight forward)
