Get Started

First steps

During this Get Started, we'll create a simple game to understand how to use the framework/engine.

To start, create the following directory and files structure:

NasNasProject
    |_ assets
    |_ src
        game.py 
    main.py

Where:

• assets folder will contain all your resources (png, fft, ogg ...)
• src folder will contain all your codes

In this Get Started, ns will refer to the NasNas game framework.

Now, let's go ahead and write some code. In game.py, we will start by creating our Game class that inherits from ns.App which is the main class of the framework.

# src/game.py
import NasNas as ns

class Game(ns.App):
    def __init__(self):
        # don't forget to call parent's __init__
        super().__init__()

Now, in main.py we need to create an instance of Game and call its run() method.

# main.py
from src.game import Game

mygame = Game()
mygame.run()

That's it ! Run main.py, you should see a black 960x540 pixels window running at 60 fps. It is simple isn't it ?

run() method is actually defined in ns.App. All what it does is starting the game loop.
