angolmois-rust
A Rust translation of Angolmois, a minimalistic music video game that plays BMS format files.
What is angolmois-rust?
Angolmois Rust Edition is a direct, line-by-line translation of the original Angolmois C code into the Rust programming language. It is a minimalistic rhythm game that plays music and game data using the Be-Music Source (BMS) file format, similar to the classic BM98. The project serves as a practical case study and educational example for porting a moderately-sized, self-contained C application to Rust.
Rust developers and learners interested in studying a real-world example of porting a complete C application (a game) to Rust, and rhythm game enthusiasts or developers looking for a minimalistic, open-source BMS player.
Developers choose this project primarily as an educational resource—it provides a heavily commented, direct translation of a non-trivial C codebase to Rust, making the porting process and Rust's application development patterns explicit. It also offers a self-contained, minimalistic BMS player implementation with fewer external dependencies than more feature-complete alternatives.
