Modern game engine written in C

Hello! For almost two years I'm working on new game engine written fully in C (C99 to be precise). My goal was to write an engine with as much less dependecies as I could so it can be easily built and ready to use. Also it does not require you to build it separately - just add two files to your project. Now I think its the time to show it to everyone - it has no fancy name - it called just Dmitry's Engine - https://github.com/mrDIMAS/DmitrysEngine It has following features (shameless copy-paste from github page) Single compilation unit - no need to build as separate library: just add de_main.h and de_main.c to your project. C99 with full compatibility with C++. FBX support - both ASCII and binary Scene graph with these nodes: Base (pivot) Mesh Light Camera Particle system Automatic assets (resources) management Textures Models Sound buffers Modern rendering techniques, renderer based on OpenGL 3.3 Core. Deferred shading Normal mapping Skeletal animation Instancing Particle systems (very simple for now) Sound 2D + 3D WAV format support Streaming for large sounds TTF fonts support (compound characters support is not implemented yet) Advanced GUI (inspired by WPF) with declarative UI creation using designated initializers with these widgets: Window Text box Text block Border Button Scroll bar Scroll viewer Scroll content presenter Canvas Grid Slide selector Image Check box Path finding (classic A* algorithm) TGA image loading Ray casting Position-based physics Built-in save/load functionality via object visitor - state of engine can be saved/loaded just in a single call. Documentation - almost every function of the engine has description in Doxygen format. Extremely fast compilation, thus very low iteration times - feature can be tested very fast. Easy to hack and modify Currently the engine lacking tutorials and standalone examples, but there is a relatively big example - the game (https://github.com/mrDIMAS/Shooter) I'm writing using the engine - it can be used as good source of code examples.
