- shaderc - A collection of tools, libraries and tests for shader compilation.
- SPIRV-cross - Tool designed for parsing and converting SPIR-V to other shader languages.
- SPIRV-tools - Tool that provides an API and commands for processing SPIR-V modules.
- glslang
- Mono - Software platform designed to allow developers to easily create cross platform applications.
- Jolt Physics - A multi core friendly rigid body physics and collision detection library suitable for games and VR applications, used by Horizon Forbidden West.
- curl - Command line tool and library for transferring data with URLs (since 1998)
- stb_image.h - Single-file public domain (or MIT licensed) libraries for C/C++.

To build and install dependencies, run the install-dependencies.sh script using the following command line:
./install-dependencies.sh [configuration]
There are currently 2 options for configuration, Debug and Release.
Run the generateprojects.bat file to run the premake scripts and generate the visual studio project files.
Open GloryEngine.sln and build the whole solution.
Run the editor by running Glorious.
Run the luncher/hub by running GloriousLauncher.
The current version of Glory is under a Personal Use Only license.
This will change in the near future to allow commercial usage under limitations.
