CompactStar Engine and SDK

The CompactStar engine is a tiny game engine I'm using for my own purposes. With the existence of very efficient and low cost, sometimes even free, 3D engines like Unity, Unreal or Panda, I know that the reasons that motivated me to write my own 3D game engine may appear somewhat strange, especially when the result is lower than these engines.

However I had several reasons to do that:

1. I wanted to learn something, and to confront myself to the difficulty to create a such engine.
2. I wanted to have a game engine as tiny as possible, with just the functionalities I needed.
3. I wanted to remain as independent as possible when creating several of my projects.

It's the reason why this engine exists.

Here are the actual supported features

• Simple shapes creation (surface, box, sphere, cylinder, disk, ring, spiral and capsule)
• Quake I (.mdl), Inter-Quake Model (.iqm), DirectX (.x, partially), Collada (.dae, partially) and WaveFront (.obj, partially) models
• Animations for Quake I (.mdl), Inter-Quake Model (.iqm), DirectX (.x) and Collada (.dae) models
• Skybox
• Landscape generation
• Transparency
• Bump mapping
• Full-scene antialiasing and post-processing effects
• Collision detection (partially - geometry, ground and mouse collision)
• Particles system (early stage, see the Weather demo and Spaceship game demo)
• Physics (early stage, see the Wild Soccer demo)
• Artificial intelligence (early stage, see the Bot demo)
• Sound and music
• Cross-platform SDK written in C
• Objective-C Metal renderer for OSX/iOS (experimental)

Without real pretensions, I decided to publish it here, just for fun.
