Introduction

 Back to ToC

In years 2001-2005 I've been involved as a Lead Programmer in several commercial game projects. The work presented here is derived from these projects.

The components of this library were used in sevral commercial games. The types of games where it was used varied very much. There was tycoon manager, and 3rd person adventure game, and several mini-game puzzles for kids.

Library is available as an Open Source since May 11th, 2005.

Personally I believe this software can be used as good knowledge base.

Please visit also Project Wiki pages.

There is also one extra project included: Raytracer.
