  • QCVM: Bite-sized QuakeC VM written in C
    7 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 5 Feb 2023
    Don't sell yourself short, I imagine you could achieve a lot more than you think! It's just a case of breaking the problem down, simplifying accordingly and (probably the most difficult bit) finding the time to sit down and work on it. There are some DIY courses that could even be followed and mashed up to approximate a scriptable "3D" engine with a bit of creativity. You could familiarise yourself with building a simple compiler + VM for a little language by following "Crafting Interpreters" (https://craftinginterpreters.com). For the engine side of things someone recently posted this "DIY Doom" over @ https://github.com/amroibrahim/DIYDoom which looks like a bit of fun.

    I mean it's a bit tougher to do it all completely from scratch, but I reckon most HNers could get quite a lot of the way there :)
