Can you build a game engine from scratch?

The built-from-scratch engine itself can be shown, with one or more games demonstrating its functionality, with the potential for an in-depth conversation (say, with a potential employer) about how, exactly, the engine and game (s) are implemented. All of this achievable by programming a game engine from scratch.

Where do you start when developing a game engine?

You start where every game engine starts, at the beginning. For 75\% of your code it dosen’t matter if you are developing for 2D, 3D, AR, XR or VR because this is “just graphics” and graphics is one but not the major part of a game engine.

Do I need a game engine for 2D or 3D games?

For 75\% of your code it dosen’t matter if you are developing for 2D, 3D, AR, XR or VR because this is “just graphics” and graphics is one but not the major part of a game engine. A game engine is more seen as the foundation of your game, a framework if this helps to better understand whats going on in the back.
