# Gig Line

A Linux-first Unreal Engine game about walking and driving through a real city. The first release, `0.1.0`, is a walkable exterior demo around **6840 Hollywood Blvd / El Capitan Entertainment Centre**, covering the south-side frontage between Highland Avenue and Orange Drive plus the north-side frontage within 50 m of the boulevard.

## Status

Pre-production. The Unreal project, prototype content, and geographic data are tracked; the engine itself is not. Current state is tracked in [ROADMAP.md](ROADMAP.md), and the per-task setup state in [Docs/setup.md](Docs/setup.md).

## Layout

| Path | Contents |
| --- | --- |
| `Game/` | Unreal project, configuration, source, game-ready content |
| `Art/` | Editable Blender files and original textures |
| `Geo/` | Source manifests, permitted geographic data, processing scripts |
| `Tools/` | Repeatable import/export helpers |
| `Docs/` | Setup, toolchain pins, licensing, release checks |

## Getting started

```bash
git lfs install    # required: content, images, audio, and geo files are LFS-tracked
git lfs pull
Tools/check-lfs.sh # verifies the lfs filter is active and files are stored as pointers
```

The engine is installed outside the repository and pinned in [Docs/toolchain.md](Docs/toolchain.md). The full procedure is in [Docs/setup.md](Docs/setup.md).
