Encompass is a powerful engine-agnostic framework to help you code games, or other kinds of simulations.

Object-oriented code is messy and rapidly becomes unmaintainable.

Encompass lets you write clean, de-coupled code so you can spend more time on your game design and less time fixing bugs.

If you are here to learn how to use Encompass and don't care about the justifications for it, or you've never made a game before, I recommend skipping ahead to [Chapter 2 ](getting_started ).
