About the project
For this project, I have decided to use the SDL2 API because it has quite a lot of good things going for it in my opinion it's easier to learn than Opengl, and it has low-level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, and graphics. So I have a great range of features for such a small library so I thought it was a good choice for me as I've never made a game engine before. But I will be adding more libraries such as a physics one and an audio one down the road.
The first thing I did was import the library in my C++ files and start to make a blank screen that can render a triangle.
Moving forward I will be trying to move objects around the screen with W,A,S,D so that I can start to get a simple game going.
So this was me getting W to work but I had it in inverted so now I understand how to get inputs from the keyboard I can now get all W,A,S,D to work now
And this is where it was working fully with all inputs correctly orientated
