:. CorEngine - Compact and Powerful 3D Game Engine [Alpha] [ Work in Progress ]

CorEngine is a work in progress, OpenGL graphics powered 3D game engine designed to help independent game developers with quick prototyping and game/virtual environment creation.
The engine supports a standard set of features, like skeletal animation, post processing, Lua/C programming, physics powered by Bullet Physics, GUI and 2D/3D Audio.

CorEngine is licensed under the zLib license. That means you can use it freely for any purpose - including commercial purposes with no limitations.

:. Main Features

Fast application development through Lua scripting language.
OpenGL renderer enabling crossplatform development and compatibility.
Support for Collada, 3ds, ms3d and various other common model formats through Assimp.
Scene editor.
Dynamic visibility culling with hardware occlusion queries.
Completely shader based rendering architecture (Shader Model 3.0).
Blender pak exporter.
Special effects like normal/parallax/specular mapping and particles system.
Post processing effects like Bloom and Depth of Field.
Skeletal animation.
Physics powered by Bullet Physics.
Built in GUI objects like labels, buttons, pictures and text fields.
Built in 3d and stereo audio support, support for OGG and WAV formats.

:. Example

init.lua

  Context.HideMouse( true )

  local scene = Engine.LoadScene( "level1.pak" )

  -- Create GUI
  local gui = Create.Gui()
  Engine.SetGui( gui )

  -- Add a Label
  local label = Create.Label( gui, "FPSLabel", 10, 10, "FPS: 0" )

  -- Get a Camera
  local camera = Scene.GetActiveCamera( scene )

  -- Main Loop
  while ( Engine.Run() ) do

    if ( Context.GetKeyState(KEY_W) == DOWN ) then
      Actor.MoveLocal( camera, 0.0, 0.0, -12.0 )
    end

    if ( Context.GetKeyState(KEY_S) == DOWN ) then
      Actor.MoveLocal( camera, 0.0, 0.0, 12.0 )
    end

    if ( Context.GetKeyState(KEY_A) == DOWN ) then
      Actor.MoveLocal( camera, -12.0, 0.0, 0.0 )
    end

    if ( Context.GetKeyState(KEY_D) == DOWN ) then
      Actor.MoveLocal( camera, 12.0, 0.0, 0.0 )
    end

    mf = Context.GetMouseForce()
    Actor.Rotate( camera, 0.0, 0.0, -mf.x * 10.0 )
    Actor.RotateLocal( camera, -mf.y * 10.0, 0.0, 0.0 )

    -- Close the app when key escape is pressed
    if ( Context.GetKeyState(KEY_ESC) == PRESSED ) then
      Engine.Quit()
    end
    
    Label.SetText( label, "FPS: " .. Engine.GetFps() )

  end
