I remember squirrel once said mk48 and kiomet are based on same game engine, and now im curious if turnfight is also based on the same...

#

all our games use our custom game engine, with the following exception: #turnfight doesn't use the rendering system in our engine. instead, it uses a custom JavaScript renderer based on Three.js

wha-

#

that custom engine can handle both 2D and 3D games by using different renderer?

brave hinge Jun 26, 2024, 2:59 PM

#

our custom engine already has 2D (e.g. mk48) and 3D (e.g. mazean) rendering support

but I didn't want to create all the #turnfight graphics from scratch so I used JavaScript/Three.js for graphics

FWIW, most of the engine is not rendering related e.g. networking, GUI, translations, input

ik.

#

brain unworking moment

#

is it hard ( i mean there need thousands lines of code or weeks) to develop a simple engine?

#

our custom engine is 50,000 lines of code

#

we didn't develop it directly. it started as something we extracted from an old version of mk48.io

Not impressive at all… no I definitely can’t only make “Hello World” appear on my browser… I can definitely understand what one would need 50,000 lines of codes for icybun
