How should I go about making a game engine?

• AntWare

  FPS Game built from scratch using C++ and OpenGL.

Here's an example of a game demo me and my friend made by gluing stuff (we made the physics ourselves and they are not so great but okay for a demo): https://github.com/YamanQD/AntWare

  2D/3D Game/Rendering Engine using OpenGL and SDL2 (by kaktusas2598)

I think it's a great IDE to make an engine for learning purposes, but one thing which really helped me here is to learn CMake. Check out my repo here https://github.com/kaktusas2598/Villain. I have a main Engine project and inside examples directory I am making games which use this engine and all projects are built using CMake. If I am making example game and see a need to have some feature in the engine, I add it to the engine so multiple games can reuse that. You can check src directory to see what kind of stuff I have in my Engine, still work in progress though!
