A small state-of-the-art study on custom engines

CUSTOM GAME ENGINES: A Small Study

a_plague_tale

A couple of weeks ago I played (and finished) A Plague Tale, a game by Asobo Studio. I was really captivated by the game, not only by the beautiful graphics but also by the story and the locations in the game. I decided to investigate a bit about the game tech and I was surprised to see it was developed with a custom engine by a relatively small studio. I know there are some companies using custom engines but it's very difficult to find a detailed market study with that kind of information curated and updated. So this article.

Nowadays lots of companies choose engines like Unreal or Unity for their games (or that's what lot of people think) because d

Document Conditions with Local Variables

Document Conditions with Local Variables

When many factors weigh into a condition, the condition statement can become unreadable, especially if combined with a poor line wrapping technique. This is a very basic technique that achieve much better readability when writing conditions.

DO NOT: Write complex conditions directly in if statements

Dealing with Player Input in Games

Dealing with Player Input in Games

Some notes on implementing player input in video games.

I've seen many games and even engines that implement player input processing in a way that makes it very hard to run unit tests on input consuming controllers and that create unnecessary dependencies from the game's movement code to whatever input library or engine is being used.

Orthodox C++

Orthodox C++

What is Orthodox C++?

Orthodox C++ (sometimes referred as C+) is minimal subset of C++ that improves C, but avoids all unnecessary things from so called Modern C++. It's exactly opposite of what Modern C++ suppose to be.

Why not Modern C++?
