Early Development — This is a one-man hobby project and is far from complete. Expect missing features, rough edges, and frequent breaking changes. Contributions and feedback are welcome, but please keep expectations in check.
An open-source recreation of LEGO Loco (1998), the LEGO train-building sandbox game, built with C++ and raylib.
The project is structured around 8 main milestones toward a first playable version.
| Milestone | Status |
|---|---|
| 1. Core Engine — grid, tiles, camera, world save/load | Done |
| 2. User Interface — main menu, toy box, game states | In progress |
| 3. Buildings & Objects — placement, houses, stations, scenery | Partially done |
| 4. Track System — switches, pathfinding, junctions | Partially done |
| 5. Trains — movement, carriages, speed control | Not started |
| 6. Minifigures — spawning, walking AI, train boarding | Not started |
| 7. Simulation Loop — tick rate, pause/speed controls | Not started |
| 8. Polish — audio, particles, undo/redo, settings | Not started |
Further out: multiplayer (LAN), postcard system, seasons/weather, train customization, and easter eggs from the original game.
