    CUSTOM GAME ENGINES: A Small Study

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

    Minimal D3D11
Minimal D3D11 reference implementation: An uncluttered Direct3D 11 setup & basic rendering primer / API familiarizer. Complete, runnable Windows application contained in a single function and laid out in a linear, step-by-step fashion that should be easy to follow from the code alone. ~215 LOC. No modern C++ / OOP / obscuring cruft. View on YouTube

Also check out Minimal D3D11 pt2, reconfigured for instanced rendering and with a smaller, tighter, simplified overall code structure, or Minimal D3D11 pt3, with shadowmapping + showcasing a range of alternative setup / rendering techniques.
