# doukutsu-rs
|
|
|
|
A re-implementation of Cave Story (Doukutsu Monogatari) engine written in [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/), aiming for accuracy and cleaner code.
|
|
Later plans might involve turning it into a fully-featured modding tool with live debugging and stuff.
|
|
|
|
**The project is still in a very early state and nowhere near being playable. Expect lots of breaking changes and bugs**

#### Data files
|

|
|
doukutsu-rs project does not re-distribute any copyrighted files.

|
The engine should work fine with [CSE2-Enhanced](https://github.com/Clownacy/CSE2) or [NXEngine(-evo)](https://github.com/nxengine/nxengine-evo) modified freeware data files and [Cave Story+](https://www.nicalis.com/games/cavestory+) (Nicalis commercial release, loading is supported but note we're not going to reverse engineer it or support it's features) data files.

#### why rust, it's a hipster language lol
|
|
|
|
The project is a result of me wanting to build something in a new programming language for memes.
|
|
|
|
I had an idea of writing my own CS engine long time before and I would've very likely picked C++17/20+SDL2, but after
|
|
all I've picked Rust instead because it seemed quite interesting for me.
|
|
|
|
Would 90% of end-users running this thing care about the programming language software was written in? After all who tf cares if the performance is the same (and maybe a slightly better), but you also get a lot of various benefits?
