The goal of this manifesto is to provide an easy to follow and reasonable rules that realtime and video game renderers can follow.
These rules highly prioritize image clarity/stability and pleasant gameplay experience over photorealism and excess graphics fidelity.
Keep in mind that shipping a game has priority over everything else and it is allowed to break the rules of the manifesto when there are no other good options in order to ship the game.
To read and write code that contains Georgian and/or Armenian characters, a combination of any preferred typeface with fallback DejaVu Sans Mono can be used.
For example, in VS Code settings.json:
{
"editor.fontFamily": "'JetBrains Mono', 'DejaVu Sans Mono'"
}

A couple of weeks ago I played (and finished) A Plague Tale, a game by Asobo Studio. I was really captivated by the game, not only by the beautiful graphics but also by the story and the locations in the game. I decided to investigate a bit about the game tech and I was surprised to see it was developed with a custom engine by a relatively small studio. I know there are some companies using custom engines but it's very difficult to find a detailed market study with that kind of information curated and updated. So this article.
Nowadays lots of companies choose engines like Unreal or Unity for their games (or that's what lot of people think) because d
