Features
NGE offers everything you need for game development - physics, rendering, audio playback, user input, tools, and more.
Not bound to an editor!
The engine incorporates a built-in Object -> Scene System. Different games demand unique
editors; in fact, some games may not require an editor at all! This is why the engine doesn't
come with a built-in editor. Instead, you have all the tools needed to easily construct one yourself.
3D Audio Engine
NGE utilizes SoLoud as its primary audio engine. With it, you can play sounds, incorporate
3D audio, and even simulate speech!
Physics Engine
Unlock the full potential of NVIDIA PhysX 5 with NGE! Simulate rigid bodies, create joints,
and implement character controllers for a realistic game world.
NGE Frontend
The NGE SDK provides you with a frontend tool that allows you to cook custom meshes for
the Physics Engine, compile shaders, and pack all your game data into one portable file!
Unique Layer and Scene System
Utilize a 3D Layer system to bring your vision to the screen! NGE has a default built-in Scene System.
Lua scripting support
Bind C++ functions to Lua for easy modification of your game and modding!
And so much more...
Try it out yourself for free! No royalties attached!
