GAME ENGINE
This project showcases the development of a C++ game engine leveraging OpenGL for graphics rendering. It features a custom render pipeline, physics, meshes, materials and UI. Incorporating multiple libraries, this engine provides a framework for game development. As a bachelor's project, it demonstrates proficiency in programming, graphics, and software architecture.
Development
Bachelors Project
This project was completed as part of my bachelor's degree, aiming to develop a lightweight 3D game engine utilizing modern C++.
Tools
The OpenGL graphics API was utilized for rendering, Visual Studio was used for coding in C++, and CMake to build the project.
Timeframe
The timeframe for developing and writing the bachelor's thesis was six months excluding the project's planning phase.
Project Highlights
Renderpipeline
The complete render pipeline was built from the ground up using the OpenGL API, resulting in a forward renderer that incorporates multiple light types, materials, shadows, and additional features.
