Meduza

Personal Game Engine project by Nick Wagter The purpose of this project is to learn modern Graphics APIs and about other components that make up a game engine.

This is mainly based on learning the components and optimizing where I can and am capable of doing so, this means that this engine will be no where near as optimal as a commercial game engine like Unity, Unreal etc.

The focus for this project will be on the windows platform but cmake and git action (CI) is setup to support Linux and MacOS as well.
