ezEngine

ezEngine is a versatile, open-source game engine developed in C++ that offers a modular and flexible approach to game and application creation. Designed to adapt to various use cases, ezEngine allows developers to integrate only the features they need through a robust plugin system, supporting systems like FMOD and Jolt Physics. The engine can be tailored to either a fully functional setup with an editor and asset management or a lightweight version focusing solely on core functionality, making it ideal for custom technology development.

ezEngine excels in providing efficient, well-tested base functionality, including high-performance scene graphs and resource streaming capabilities, which are essential in building both games and industrial applications. It supports Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android platforms, with an intuitive editor that facilitates rapid prototyping and real-time editing. Particularly beneficial for students and those eager to learn about modern game engine mechanics, ezEngine welcomes contributions and fosters a collaborative development environment. While it may not rival commercial engines in terms of feature completeness, its strong foundation makes it an excellent choice for developers seeking to build and innovate.
