Lina Engine is currently being carried over to a new version (30.12.2018). There exists LinaEngine and Sandbox folders which is consists of the structure for sandbox application and DLL linkage setup. The old project files, that include examples for input, rendering, event and ECS systems can be found under the folder _VERSION0_SRC.
Lina Engine is an open-source game engine, that is dedicated to bring alternative and unique solutions to solve existing problems in the architecture of many game engines. It offers an architecture that has the purpose to create lightweight systems and focus on the robustness of core structure rather than stacking thousands of features for market competence.
Lina Engine is a research project, and it is aimed to be the basis of development for more open-source game engine projects. It is our hope that the techniques and architecture used in this game engine can play the initiative role for more projects to develop open source game engines.
