my little vulkan rendering experiment has turned into me making my own game engine. oops.

I KNEW I liked you for a reason.

not joking, when i saw your first few posts about this i literally said to myself “can’t wait for the engine demo” it’s fun, right?

lmao yeah this project really got outta hand. But yeah everything game engine-wise is tons of fun! The editor stuff, not so much... xD

Hell yeah... in C++ though? You gotta watch out or you'll end up trying Rust, Zig, Jai, Nim, Odin, and ultimately plain C lol

Rust is something I'm also curious about to learn but Vulkan was complicated enough to learn by itself :P

@synthnostate Learn? I had to reverse engineer the stupid matrix math, because it didn't match any of the documentation - and Grok refused to believe that the documentation wasn't right. It was hell.

@BustaSnutt Rust's matrix math? Yeah that checks out, lol.

broooo this is fireeeee

ooh, there it is! noice

@notch Awesome! The more the merrier! 👏

Ahhhh happens to the best of us

I was making a presentation editor and it turned into a game engine 😂

Looks great, is it hosted on github?

thanks! no I'm keeping it for myself for now until I figure out what to do with it.

I will do this when I am financially stable.

thats is epiccccccccccccccccccc

aww dangit.

neatt

Thats pretty impressive, specially the physics

Man, I hate when that happens.

any tips for getting into this sort of thing? might be fun to learn how game engines work

This isn't Satisfactory 2...

But is there golf?

first - I want to write a little renderer. then - I want to write my game engine. finally - how about make a full game.

You are very brave for writing for vulkan

Resident evil vibes from this scene

noice

I can relate

Nice. I have the beginnings of one - HOWEVER - my life is completely fucking insane, and I can't ever seem to be able to get anything done. I can live vicariously through this - and go, I would be there if my life didn't explode 10 fucking times.

Thats how it goes
