A simple image viewer

featuring Curly Brace from Cave Story

Inspired by tiny Linux image viewers, this small viewer was one of my later works before I begun making Godot Engine games all the time. It used SDL2, stb_image and can be found here. Today, as I begin to use Godot Engine less and less to pursue creating my own from-scratch game engine, I have started flowing into the handmade mindset by rewriting this viewer using Raylib and adding all sorts of good improvements while still having a very small thing altogether.

Features:

• Various image formats supported by Raylib are supported here, specifically: .png, .bmp, .tga, .jpg, .qoi, single frame of .gif, .dds!
• Drop images into viewer! It'll only use the first one, so don't be silly...
• Image files with horizontal/vertical resolution higher than 1000 (can be adjusted in source code) scale the window so they can be seen properly.
• Window can be scaled around to get a better look at the image, and image will scale and still be centered accordingly.
• Nearest Neighbor/Bilinear filtering option to better present certain images.
• Curly Brace art drawn by me! That year and a half of practicing digital art is finally paying off...
• Works perfectly under Wine!

Controls:

• B - Toggle between Nearest Neighbor and Bilinear filtering.
• I - Toggle between Float and Integer scaling (integer scaling best for pixel art!).
• Esc - Exit curlyview.

Command Line usage:

curlyview [path-to-image.ext]
