SDL vs Unreal
Code base really small because it develop by solo developer with help from some volunteer contibutors. Support DirectX12 and Vulkan. There is editor for edit and save scene file but it's not finish yet so you have to mostly add features that you want by yourself beside rendering part. https://github.com/turanszkij/WickedEngine

If you DON'T use UE/Unity what is your workflow
I just ran across the Wicked Engine yesterday. It's C++, cross-platform, MIT licensed and works with both DX12 and Vulkan. I had missed it in numerous searches I had done previously, so raising it here as it seems to be easy to miss.

A Rant on Developers
I'm not speaking out of my ass, either, I have very actively followed low-level development being done towards open-source engines such as Diligent and Wicked. I personally am a contributor to the latter engine, as well. It is baffling to me that independent developers don't support this platform.

Migrating Away from Rust
Sorry but this engine had(s) problems rendenring a rectangle with alpha channel 3 months ago (I'm assuming it was fixed).
Is it normal for Rust ecosystem to use software of this level of maturity?

Rust Game Physics Engines: PhysX, Rapier, XPBD & Others
Some other Rust game engines ship with their own physics engine. Fyrox, for example, has advanced 2D/3D physics, supporting rigid bodies, joints, ray casting and more. Godot too, which has community-led Rust bindings also has an in-built physics engine as well as a Godot-native extension using the Jolt physics engine. In fact, which is reported to be more performant than the official physics engine.

“This Is a Disaster:” Game Developers Scramble to Deal with Unity’s New Fees
I would say Bevy isn't really similar to Unity. Something like Fyrox - https://fyrox.rs/ - would be more similar. Bevy is more low level and lacks an editor (as of now, it's planned)

Help me find my game engine!
Fyrox might be an option, but for what you're looking (simple game logic, low performance concerns, desire for complete editor) for I'd probably choose Godot over it.
