= Project Description for the Game-Service Module State: Version 0-5-1 (08 August 2026) License: GPL 3.0 (29 June 2007) == Status The current state is still demanding some care but plenty is functioning, in particular the sound-engine, image-atlas and game-screen are recommended for use. The game-screen is designed for on-demand painting and free of stroboscope effects. This was my intention to develop a viable graphical game-engine w/o much of animation capacity and the sickening stroboscope of the rendering. The success is ok for now but still experimental. == Functionality Game-Service is an utility collection of structures and algorithms which aid in the development of Java based games. There are graphical and sound-playing elements. The service focusses on 4 central topics. -- map and layered map classes allowing muti-layer graphical design logic and rendering to the screen. The map structures specialise for hexadecimal tile designs of variable sizes. -- a game-screen device (class) designed for 2D-graphics based on Swing which organises graphical output to the computer screen. It has an in-built painting pipe for graphical elements, a paint-canvas with a shiftable view and is capable of Torus rendering of maps. -- a versatile sound-playing machine encompassing both music and simultaneous clip playing. -- an image atlas which can efficiently tailor loaded images into paintable elements with names. Furthermore utilities have gathered which could prove useful for game development. == DEPENDENCIES OF GAMESERVICE == Service Version 0.5.1 The following Java packages have been bound to the development state of the game-service and found to be working. == ESSENTIAL PACKAGES == -- kse-util-cla1-0-13-0.jar (sonatype = utilclas1-0.13.0) == OPTIONAL PACKAGES -- jorbis-0.0.17.4 for OGG sound playing -- tritonus-share-0.3.7.4 for OGG sound playing -- vorbisspi-1.0.3.3 for OGG sound playing -- mp3spi-1.9.5.4 for MP3 sound playing -- jlayer-1.0.1.4 for MP3 sound playing -- jaudiotagger-3.0.1 for retrieval of sound metadata (not required for MP3 files)
