• Unreal Engine change its price for non-game apps

  O3DE[0] looks interesting - owned by the Linux Foundation, originally based on Amazon's Lumberyard, and it has some big players involved: Amazon, Epic Games(!), Microsoft, NVIDIA, Intel, Huawei, Red Hat, [0] https://o3de.org. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Alternative Game Engines for Marooned Unity Developers

  03DE: Open source game engine, under Apache License 2.0, developed by Amazon and the linux foundation. Seems to work under a modular package called "gems", that you can use to pull in the functionality you need. It uses c++ as it's main language, but you can use Lua, python or visual scripting for scripting stuff. Has multiplayer built into the engine and what they call a "robust" system for open-world games.... Source: 9 months ago

• Someone dropped the source code for Far Cry 1 on archive.org

  Note that Lumberyard became "Open 3D Engine" (yes, very inspired name) which is Apache 2 licensed: https://o3de.org/ https://github.com/o3de/o3de/ AFAIK all development in Lumberyard has ceased and moved to O3DE. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Did they take down the post about motion matching recently?

  Many pages in o3de.org are down. They are working on it. Source: about 1 year ago

• Is SPIRV-Cross a valid option to target Metal from HSSL?

  I've worked on this a bit as part of the shader pipeline of Open3DEngine, From my experience there are very few compatibility issues between hlsl and sprir-v, sprir-v to msl however does run into a few issues.Here are the ones I remember. Source: over 1 year ago

• RTS programming game where you write real C++ code to control your player.

  This idea seems similar to screeps, robocode, battle-code, and to a lesser extent, Neural MMO. Source: over 1 year ago

• RTS programming game where you write real C++ code to control your player.

  Looks cool! Reminds me of robocode. Source: over 1 year ago

• Any coding game accessible with Go?

  I found https://robocode.sourceforge.io/ in Java, https://screeps.com/ in JavaScript (WASM from Golang seems not to work), and https://leekwars.com/ had its own language…. Source: about 2 years ago

• Why has the Bot Battle genre been so neglected over the years?

  You had to write the intelligence of a robot/tank in a C-like language of these game development software. The bottom line is two of these programs competed against each other. If I remember correctly these battles took place in a recurring tournament and you could win a license of the game developement software, or maybe nothing. The only one I found in a 2-minute search that is similar to this is Robocode... Source: about 2 years ago

• Battleship

  One of the first incantations of this idea that I encountered, when I had just started working at my first corporate job back in the day, was Robocode ( https://robocode.sourceforge.io/ ) - it was great fun, and I see it's still going. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
