Game Engine
Game Engines is the mainframe of the game. Graphical, Gameplay and code.
A game engine is a software development kit (SDK) that contains the source code and tooling necessary to get a basic video game up and running fast, letting the developer script in the gameplay, levels, and characters, without needing to touch a single line (or at least, much fewer lines) of code or know advanced programming.
This allows the game developer to focus more on the gameplay and the “fun factor”, spending less time on complex math trying to get everything set up.
Here are some examples of big games and their game engines.
