Blast from the Past: CppGameEngine Parte 1

This project is a complete remake of my original C++ game engine, which also used Qt and OpenGL. In this version, I aim to focus more on the functionality of the Editor, reworking the Asset system (previously known as the ResourceManager), and experimenting more with rendering. In my previous version, I focused more on creating from scratch. I created my own Matrix/Vector library (ouch), wrote my own OpenGL code and wrapper classes for Shaders and the like, and

Improvements to be Made

• Don't use exceptions. BAD for a high-performance game engine!
• Rely more on Qt's OpenGL wrappers so that I can focus on the actual GLSL shaders and the rendering engine
• Better Material classes
• Cleaner Editor code

Goals for this Version

• Use Test-Driven Development
• Create an Editor that can create and compile new game projects
• Improve definitions for Materials
• Sharpen use of Data-Driven Design
• Scripting???
