Zheng Xian Qiu is currently a Rails programmer. Though his day job is about website development right now, deep inside he dreams of becoming a game developer—not a full-time one, probably, but he firmly believes that game developing will remain his lifetime hobby.
Game Development Framework from the Ground Up
In 2016, with the improvement of my own knowledge and techniques, I finally had the opportunity to try out something I’ve always wanted to do: game programming without relying on existing engines, and building the framework step-by-step, utilizing just basic / general libraries. If I had been working on an important project, of course, I would have chosen to use a game engine, but if the situation permits, it’s far more ideal for me to develop a game in an environment constructed by my own hands. I will be sharing in this talk how I started preparing and constructing my own game development framework, as well as my thoughts and what I learned during the process.
