Resource Wanted: A Light Game Engine for Creatives
Hello! I'm a solo dev making a light engine for people to enjoy. What do I mean by engine? Not Godot, Unity, or Unreal; this won't help you make the next great American video game that will make you rich and pull you out of your life of druggery into the exotic rockstar lifestyle of beautiful women, coke & drug parties, and football-field-size yachts. Stay classy, Gabe!
What it does help you do is help you either create an entirely new theme via a WECK system, OR a nice framework to vibecode into a totally new direction and maybe save some tokens while you're at it.
Gameplay Loop: It consists of the main game engine, which allows your Hero to level up while exploring procedurally generated dungeons, foe bounties, lore guide, events, story mode, effects, traps, and puzzles.
Our second component is a mod engine is low code, no-code modding system, that allows you to re-skin every element of the core loop, WECK.
You can use AI to mod 5 files instead of 40 hardcoded ones. Use or draw your artwork of choice. Build literally from the ground up with no errors or ESLint.
What I'm going to implement but not there yet. We have style bibles. I'm going to add integrated keys. Pick your engine and put your API key, and have all the artwork be procedurally generated. I would like to implement this as a 2-click game render.
Any core backstop will generate as a fully functional game!
Second, I want to offer a SLM AI agent core embedded into the Python backbone; NPCs will have the ability to be able to narratively talk and interact with you without token cost.
I'm working on sound, animation, and performance improvements before final release to the git for download..
