Boomer Shell

Boomer Shell is a shell application written in C# (.NET 9). The main purpose of the application is to extend the functionality of games created with the Easy FPS Editor.

Requirements

OS: 64 bit Windows 10/11

NOTE: Boomer Shell is a self contained .NET 9 application. This means that .NET 9 Runtime is not required on the system as it is included in the Boomer Shell files.

Conditions for use

Boomer Shell is a one-time purchase per developer/team. That means that once you have bought it you can use it freely in all your projects. You are entitled to any public update to Boomer Shell. Please refrain from sharing the files with other developers who are not directly working on your own projects. Developers who are working with you on your own project are not allowed to copy the Boomer Shell files and use it in their own projects. 

Boomer Shell must be purchased by the owner of the project. That means that a publisher who has previously purchased Boomer Shell may not share the files with projects they are not developing themselves.

Features

Steam Achievements

Boomer Shell allows you to add Steam Achievements to your game. You can add, remove, and update achievements using the achievements.json file. In the current version the shell will not update the achievements on Steamworks, so that will have to be done manually. Read more about how to add achievements in Steamworks in the official Steamworks documentation.

Currently Achievements are triggered each time the game is autosaved. The auto save file is read by Boomer Shell and any game variables are extracted. The variables are then compared to the achievements.json file and any achievements where the conditions are fulfilled will be unlocked.

Planned Features

The following features may be added in future versions:

• Resolution manager
  • Auto detect system resolution and apply to game before launch
  • Limit max resolution
• Option to use encoded configuration file
• Steam stats and Leaderboards
• Inverted mouse (Huge MAYBE on this one)
• Create Achievements locally and add to Steamworks
• Import Achievements from Steamworks
• UI for Achievements and Configuration management
