An engine which is the result of my never-ending quest to understand how things work and has become my go-to place for research. It's designed around the philosophy of favoring fast real-time solutions over baked/static ones, a spartan approach offering a truly dynamic experience.
If you're also on the lookout for knowledge, then you might find this engine to be a helpful study resource. This is because a lot of effort goes into into building and maintaining a clean, modern and overall high quality architecture, an architecture that will ensure continuous development over the years ;-)

WIP | WIP |
- 10+ font file formats support (FreeType)
- 20+ audio file formats support (FMOD)
- 30+ image file formats support (FreeImage)
- 40+ model file formats support (Assimp)
- Vulkan and DirectX 11 backends (same HLSL shaders compile everywhere)
- Deferred rendering with transparency (under a single render path and using the same shaders)
- Principled BSDF supporting anisotropic, clearcoat and cloth materials (combined with things like normal mapping, parallax, masking, occlusion etc)
- Bloom (Based on a study of Resident Evil 2's RE Engine)
- Volumetric lighting
- Lights with physical units (lux for directional, candelas for point and spot lights)
- Shadows with penumbra and colored translucency (Cascaded and omnidirectional shadow mapping with Vogel filtering)
- SSAO (Screen space ambient occlusion)
- SSR (Screen space reflections)
- SSS (Screen space shadows)
- TAA (Temporal anti-aliasing based on Uncharted 4)
- Physically based camera (Aperture, Shutter Speed, ISO)
- Depth of field (controlled by the aperture of the camera)
- Motion blur (controlled by the shutter speed of the camera)
- Real-time shader editor
- Custom mip chain generation (Higher texture fidelity using Lanczos3 scaling)
- Font rendering
- Frustum culling
- Post-process effects (Tone-Mapping, FXAA, Sharpening, Dithering, Chromatic aberration etc.)
- Physics (Rigid bodies, Constraints, Colliders)
- Entity-component system
- Event system
- Input (Keyboard, Mouse, Xbox controller)
- Debug rendering (Transform gizmo, scene grid, bounding boxes, colliders, raycasts, g-buffer visualization etc)
- Thread pool
- Engine rendered platform agnostic editor
- Profiling (CPU & GPU)
- C# scripting (Mono)
- XML files
- Windows 10 and a modern/dedicated GPU (The target is high-end machines, old setups or mobile devices are not officially supported)
- Easy to build (Single click project generation which includes editor and runtime)
| Feature | Completion | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Continuous Vulkan optimisation | - | Outperforms D3D11. Need to make more stable and uber optimise. |
| Screen space global illumination | 100% | One bounce of indirect diffuse and specular light |
| Depth-of-field | 100% | Controlled by Camera aperture |
| C# scripting (Replace AngelScript) | 50% | Using Mono (no engine API exposed yet) |
| DirectX 12 | - | Low priority |
| Eye Adaptation | - | Low priority |
| Subsurface Scattering | - | Low priority |
| Ray traced shadows | - | - |
| Ray traced reflections | - | - |
- Skeletal Animation.
- Atmospheric Scattering.
- Dynamic resolution scaling.
- Export on Windows.
- UI components.
- Make editor more stylish.
- Compiling - A guide on how to compile from source.
