Game Client for Portfolio

This is multiplayer action game client developed with C++20 and 'SyzygyEngine'.

Overview

This repository contains the client-side implementation for a networked action game portfolio project.

It includes:

• Login scene with player name input.
• Main in-game scene with player control, enemy/effect systems, and UI managers.
• TCP-based connection flow to a game server using Asio.
• CI pipelines for Debug, Develop, and Release builds.

Tech Stack

• Language: C++20
• Build System: MSBuild / Visual Studio solution (Portfolio.sln)
• Platform: Windows x64
• Networking: Asio (standalone)
• Serialization: Protocol Buffers (with Abseil)
• Graphics: DirectX12
• Tools: DirectXTex, Dear ImGui, Assimp

Requirements

• Windows 11
• Visual Studio 2022 with C++ desktop development workload
• Git LFS
• Submodule support (--recurse-submodules)

Getting Started

1. Clone

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/TaiseiHamaya/PortfolioGameClient.git
cd PortfolioGameClient
git lfs pull

2. Build (Visual Studio)

1. Open Portfolio.sln in Visual Studio 2022.
2. Select one configuration from: Debug | x64, Develop | x64, Release | x64.
3. Build the solution.

3. Build (MSBuild)

msbuild Portfolio.sln /p:Platform=x64,Configuration=Develop

You can replace Develop with Debug or Release.

Run

After build, executable output is expected at:

../generated/outputs/x64/<Configuration>/Portfolio.exe

You can also use the helper script:

pwsh ./Game/DevTool/launch-bot.ps1 1 -BuildType Develop

Notes:

• The script can launch multiple bot clients with --develop-bot-enable.
• Default server address is currently hardcoded in Game/Scripts/Network/GameServer/GameServerConnectionManager.cpp.

Controls

Title / Login Scene

• Move selection: W / S, Up / Down, or gamepad left stick

• Action 1: key 1 or gamepad A

Project Structure

• Game/ : game-specific code, assets, gameplay scripts, networking logic
• SyzygyEngine/ : engine source and third-party integrations
• .github/workflows/ : CI build pipelines for each configuration
• Portfolio.sln : root Visual Studio solution

CI

GitHub Actions validates builds on every push to master for:

• Debug
• Develop
• Release

Each workflow checks out submodules and LFS assets before running MSBuild on Windows runners.
