doukutsu-rs

A re-implementation of Cave Story (Doukutsu Monogatari) engine written in Rust, aiming for behavior 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

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 and 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?
