In light of the #unity debacle, loads of people are suggesting building your own engine, which is a good idea and great fun. However, there are a ton of really useful samples, frameworks, tools and engines with very permissive licences to get you going.
For example, this is a great list of #vulkan resources, including full engines for most platforms and languages that you can use in commercial projects, often with no restrictions at all.
An #introduction. #GenX #gamedev since '96. Started in the days of #DirectX 3 (!) and #N64.
For my sins I was lead programmer on #EarthwormJim 3D and State of Emergency amongst others. Worked for a while on #Playstation Home. Nowadays mostly technical project management contracting and consultancy, but still coding.
Experience with #unreal and #unity (pah!) but also custom engines and weird legacy code. Still trying and failing to find the time to squeeze in indie solo dev work. Maybe one day.
