Comment on Making game engines is a waste of time – I probably won’t stop making them

Comments

We still need a world class, best of breed, open source game engine, no?

It seems like game engines should go the way of linux. No one would really consider making a new commercial os these days.

Have you checked out the Godot engine?

I don't think it's at the polish of Unreal or Unity, but it's probably the closest attempt for open source.

I've wondered whether we should see more experimentation in the OS space. Why should Windows, Linux and Unix monopolize everything?

Also, with FPGAs, maybe we should see more OS HW level experimentation.
