 # Game Engine
 
-Game engine is a [software](software.md), usually a [framework](framework.md) or a [library](library.md), that serves as a base code for [games](game.md). Such an engine may be seen as a [platform](platform.md) allowing [portability](portablity.md) and offering preprogrammed functionality often needed in games ([3D rendering](3d_rendering.md), [physics engine](physics_engine.md), [I/O](io.md), networking, [AI](ai.md), audio, scripting, ...) as well as [tools](tool.md) used in game development (level editor, [shader](shader.md) editor, 3D editor, ...).

Such an engine may be seen as a [platform](platform.md) allowing [portability](portablity.md) and offering preprogrammed functionality often needed in games ([3D rendering](3d_rendering.md), [physics engine](physics_engine.md), [I/O](io.md), [networking](network.md), [AI](ai.md), [audio](audio.md), [scripting](script.md), ...) as well as [tools](tool.md) used in game development (level editor, [shader](shader.md) editor, 3D editor, ...). The scope and complexity ([bloat](bloat.md)) of game engines vary, some are quite tiny ([good](good.md)), others are full fledged all-in-one frameworks with tools, asset stores and so on (bad).
 
-A game engine differs from a general multimedia engine/library, such as [SDL](sdl.md), by its specific focus on games. It is also different from generic rendering engines such as [3D engines](3d_engine.md) like [OpenSceneGraph](osg.md) because games require more than just rendering (audio, AI, physics, ...). While one may use some general purpose technology such as [C](c.md) or [SDL](sdl.md) for creating a game, using a game engine should make the process easier. However, **beware of [bloat](bloat.md)** that plagues most mainstream game engines. [LRS](lrs.md) advises against use of any frameworks, so try to at worst use a game library. Many game programmers such as [Jonathan Blow](jonathan_blow.md) advocate and practice writing own engines for one's games.

+**Should you use a game engine?** Probably NOT, either use something [LRS](lrs.md) approved, such as [SAF](saf.md), or write the game from scratch, as a [portable](portability.md) software without [dependencies](dependency.md).
