About
Grit is an open-source game engine with a C++ core and a Lua scripting layer. It requires a separate media/game-content tree checked out via Subversion alongside the engine's own Git repository, and can be built on Windows (Visual Studio 2017 Express or later) or Linux (GNU Make).
Getting started
Most users don't need to build the engine themselves, since the Subversion media tree also ships prebuilt, up-to-date executables for Linux and Windows. The engine can be substantially customized through Lua scripting without touching the C++ code.
