ivi VS Torque3D

ivi, Preact, and more

And the answer was: it depends. The Virtual DOM library I tested, ivi, had no issues handling more components. But Lit and Svelte were dramatically worse. They scaled back to almost React levels of performance as I broke them down to more components. All their non-VDOM performance benefits basically disappeared.

Some things are just inherently complex. Look at virtual dom reconciliation algorithm, for example. Others simply don't benefit from overly aggressive pursuit of "improvements". Look at database levels of normalization for another example of how one can apply theoretical "best practices" to the wazoo and completely lose sight of pragmatism.

On a similar note, released games with open sourced code: https://osgameclones.com/?tag=official

https://torque3d.org was used on Airship Dragoon, Marble Blast Gold, Penny Arcade Adventures, Legions: Overdrive and descends from the original Tribes engine.

Hellbreaker, Bit Champs with https://u3d.io

And plenty of successful games with Ogre, including Torchlight: https://www.ogre3d.org/showcase

Torque 2D/3D: Didn't do too much digging around on this one, but both versions are MIT licensed like Godot, but it seems like the project is a little more mature, with built-in multiplayer support. Could be worth looking into as an alternative to Godot if you really want something with MIT licensing.

But from now on, I think I will abandon that, and continue with Torque3D engine : https://torque3d.org/

Torque3D- This one seems great for beginners, as it's free and open-source. The downside is, I'm not sure if it has enough features for complex projects or how secure it is.

Torque3D (the engine used to make Tribes 2, now open-source)

No lie, that overall looks a lot like a game done for a senior design project 15+ years ago using Garage Games' (now https://torque3d.org/) RTS kit.
