OpenGl Backend #86

Open VectorWolf opened 4 years ago

VectorWolf commented 4 years ago

Currently we use SDL2 for about every hardware interaction, but this comes with some limitations. With an own OpenGl backend we can:

have pseudo 3d rendering via a shader which can take normals and light sources into account
have fade in and fade out effects for single tiles or even whole layers
have the possibility to use post processing shaders on layers for cool effects

If I ever get to implement this, I should pay attention to only use the opengl es2/webgl subset of opengl to not break compatibility with emscripten (and future android builds)
