MonoGame.Samples/CollisionSample

CollisionSample (MonoGame 3.8.4, .NET 8)

This project demonstrates various forms of collision detection for primitives in MonoGame, including oriented bounding boxes and triangles. It is structured for modern cross-platform .NET 8 development, with a clean separation between shared game logic and platform-specific entry points.

Directory Structure

• Core/: Shared game logic and content (.xnb files)
• Platforms/Windows/: Windows-specific project (net8.0-windows)
• Platforms/Desktop/: DesktopGL (cross-platform) project (net8.0)
• Platforms/Android/: Android project (net8.0-android)
• Platforms/iOS/: iOS project (net8.0-ios)

Prerequisites

• .NET 8 SDK
• MonoGame 3.8.4 NuGet packages (restored automatically)
• For Android/iOS: Appropriate .NET workloads and platform SDKs (e.g., Android Studio, Xcode)

Building and Running

Windows

dotnet build Platforms/Windows/CollisionSample.Windows.csproj

Run the resulting executable from bin/Debug/net8.0-windows/.

DesktopGL (Cross-platform)

dotnet build Platforms/Desktop/CollisionSample.DesktopGL.csproj

Run the resulting executable from bin/Debug/net8.0/.

Android

dotnet build Platforms/Android/CollisionSample.Android.csproj

Deploy the resulting APK to an Android device or emulator.

iOS

dotnet build Platforms/iOS/CollisionSample.iOS.csproj

Deploy using Xcode or the .NET iOS workload on a Mac.

Notes

• No .mgcb file is used; the project loads pre-built .xnb content directly.
• Platform-specific entry points are in their respective folders.
• All shared code is in the Core project.
• If you encounter missing SDK/platform errors, ensure you have installed the required .NET workloads for Android/iOS.
