Micha posted recently a picture of Keen games engine, which is really interesting:

It goes really well from simple to complex assets. Their data model allows some flexibility that other engines may not achieve (the project view goes down to a single object).

Go and play the Alabaster Dawn demo (it's the new game from the CrossCode team).

Break Nyx’s curse and guide humanity's rebirth in this top-down 2.5D Action RPG Demo Version from the creators of CrossCode. Battle enemies with stylish combos, wield multiple divine weapons, solve intriguing puzzles and explore a changing world.

Why the @#&! there is no VK_BUFFER_USAGE_ACCELERATION_STRUCTURE_SCRATCH_KHR_BIT and I need to manually consider minAccelerationStructureScratchOffsetAlignment? If there was such flag, vkGetBufferMemoryRequirements could return required alignment.
We released a new trailer for Enshrouded https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBAnTKGioq4 showcasing the new water biome. Lot of great work done by our master student programmer Simon working on water simulation for over a year. Also featuring the amazing work from our graphics programmers making it look great.

Hey, I recently quit my job at Deck13 and can finally reveal the reason (see https://www.gameswirtschaft.de/wirtschaft/deck13-interactive-wechsel-unreal-engine/). I'm currently busy finishing a phd but from next May I'll see if I can make it as a freelancer. If you want help with console ports or performance work for anything that's not Unreal or Unity, get in contact.
