I am trying to learn OpenGL and see how far I can get to making stuff

Today I worked on creating an Input class that's similar to Unity. I also created a Window class that handles all the window set up stuff. And last I just need to seperate the Camera stuff from my main function. Main is only 50 lines since everything got moved behind the scene (it's probably running through about 5k of my lines behind the scenes)!

Today I worked on the materials class so it can store all the shader data. So that when I tell the gpu which shader to use, it also fills in other data I need, so I don't need to do that manually. I can just call the material class to do it for me

I rendered some color cubes to show the axises (cause I was confused) and I added a transform to gameobjects so you can rotate move and scale them

Today I created a GameObject script that you can attach other scripts to and access. I ended my day with rendering my sphere by sending the renderer only the GameObject. 

I finished up the Mesh, and material classes to render from just the GameObject and starched each to the specific GameObject

For anyone wondering yes I’m basically copying Unity’s architecture at this point, but doing it from scratch and without looking up how it’s actually set up

I haven't really done any new feature. Just spent the last few days moving everything from a pointer based system to an object one and creating higher level structures. ie materials, meshes.

So here's a smooth sphere I imported from blender.

I finally got the program to import .obj files to my engine! Worked on debugging the last few days to just find I should have used a new pointer and not an object since it was deleting the data when it wasn't supposed to lol

This was a lot of math to do. It generates a block based sphere and has no extra vertices/faces rendered inside the sphere

Worked on making the cube a fractal and making it have a janky outline. You can also move around the cube in 3d space
