halley VS The-Forge

https://github.com/amzeratul/halley if you want 2D

Given that the game is being written with their in-house engine called halley which supports consoles (was used for Wargroove), the answer is most likely yes.

Halley Engine - C++ Game engine used in Starbound, Wargroove and the Upcoming Witchbrook

It was originally in another programming language called Rust, but the programmer that knew that program left. Amzertul made an amazing engine with Wargroove called halley and we felt that it would be perfect for WB. Focus was shifted to Wargroove for a while, and then witchbrook started to be recoded. At this time the artstyle was changed to isometric.

Not pixpil, but our own engine which we use to make pixel art titles is open source.

We used my own game engine (Halley) for both Wargroove & Witchbrook, no regrets at all! It's definitely a lot of work, but owning the entire stack gives you a lot of advantages. I posted a Twitter thread with my thoughts on the pros and cons a while ago, if you're interested.

Oh, I forgot a few major ones:

https://github.com/ConfettiFX/The-Forge was used in No Man's Sky, Hades and Starfield.

https://github.com/jrouwe/JoltPhysics is the physics engine in Horizon Forbidden West.

To my understanding, every source I've read says that this should cause issues, but in practice it doesn't. What gives? Did I miss something? Here are multiple examples using the latter approach.

This is a toy project that I've been working on for the past few months. Essentially, I've rewritten all the rendering code for the engine using BGFX. This means that all the fixed function OpenGL 1.2 code has been removed from the engine. BGFX supports OpenGL 3.3 and DirectX11, but there are still some rendering artifacts with DirectX11, so the engine still uses OpenGL when running on Windows. I've been considering switching to The Forge (https://github.com/ConfettiFX/The-Forge) if I want to have more control over the rendering pipeline. However, this is a complex topic with significant implications for the codebase. I've already done the hard work of eliminating clumsy abstractions in the engine and simplifying the render pipeline, so it's just a matter of deciding what direction I want to take.

The-Forge might fit:

So, I'm not sure if it is widely known, that Starfield is going to be running on a lot of "The Forge." The creators of The Forge says it was added to Creation Kit in 2019. This will open a LOT of new systems for Bethesda games.
