ECS, Finally

I'm working my way through the HandsOnRust book that guides you through creating a simple roguelike using Rust and Legion ECS. It's a really enjoyable experience so far, and I'm looking towards trying out Bevy ECS afterwards to compare the two.

  48 5,589 9.6 C

  A fast entity component system (ECS) for C & C++

I've also been enjoying building My First Game™ in Bevy using ECS. The community around Bevy really shines, but Flecs (https://github.com/SanderMertens/flecs) is arguably a more mature, open-source ECS implementation. You don't get to write in Rust, though, which makes it less cool in my book :)

I'm not very proud of the code I've written because I've found writing a game to be much more confusing than building websites + backends, but, as the author notes, it certainly feels more elegant than OOP or globals given the context.

I'm building for WASM and Bevy's parallelism isn't supported in that context (yet? https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4078), so the performance wins are just so-so. Sharing a thread with UI rendering suuucks.
