Ai plan for spacebox to release on xbox so soon enough i will start looking into this myself
although i will admit using C++ for the game has been in the back of my mind for a while, I just can't be bothered to spend months porting my engine and then fiddling around with mono to try and get it to load c# assemblies so i can support modding

ZBut I'll see bout that
ZTbh I think C# is pretty good for gaming
ZIt's performant enough and it's really friendly
ZI hope eventually more games start to be made using C# libraries and engines (not just Unity)
Ait's pretty decent for games.
ironically though it is so portable its not portable enough for my usecase

FUnity used because it is simple, and solo dev can finish project. Making that all from scratch will take up to 10 years, like that guy on youtube, made simple farm game on java. The first videos are 7 years ago 
ZTrue but idk
ZFrom personal experience Unity is really uncomfortable to work with
ZAt least for me
ZAnd I'm finishing a small project in it rn
Amaking a completely general purpose game engine will take years for a single person, heck, it takes years for teams.
i am going down that path myself but not so much that i am going crazy over it. my engine can handle what i need and nothing more. that's when the development time speeds up. after i've implemented all the bits i need then i'll worry about implementing the "general purpose" bits

Aa fair amount of development time can also be attributed to making the editor for the engine. the solution here is to not bother with making a general purpose editor, you can live without it.
just make what you need and nothing more

ZPretty sure with stuff like Silk and the rest of tools making an engine you're comfortable with doesn't take too much time
ZWhich is a bless
FThe main problem, where to find person who will pay you for time spent on hobbie 
ZNo one will spend money on your hobby
ZUnless it's a devoted fan but software engineers don't usually have those unfortunately
Z(Sorry but it's true that software engineers don't get too much donations like gamedevs, artists and etc.)
ZI might be wrong but tbh I have a feeling that it's easier with that kind of stuff on the West
ZProbably a delusion so might as well get the opinion of someone who lives there atm
ZBy the West I mean NA or Western Europe btw
FYes, so people have boring job, and can actually work on own games 2 hours on weekends
ZSome people study
ZAnd still barely have any time

FSame for “it” job, when I have a deadline I literaly sit 24 hours just to meet timeline actually it happens every week 
. But Im working at home, not so stressful as in office.
actually it happens every week . But Im working at home, not so stressful as in office.ZOh so you do have a job
ZIs it overly stressful?
ZAhh nvm sorry for too many questions
ZYou don't have to answer
FThe most - to find one
Half a year I had job interviews, answer “tech theory” questions, and no effect.
One day, some person wrote me directly without CV, asked couple of simple questions, and said - ok, when you could start?

ZDamn
ZLife sure is weird
ZBut I'm glad you found a job
RI made the grave mistake of trying to learn vulkan
RPlease send help
RI'm a thousand lines in and I don't even have a working graphics pipeline yet
RHas anyone here tried compiling GLSL to SPIR-V at runtime to emulate the OpenGL way of setting up shaders?
Ayep, i do that in my abstraction layer
Aits pretty simple
RI'm having trouble just... finding native libraries
RI wish more things worked the way Silk itself does where you just install the NuGet package and are done with it
Ahttps://www.nuget.org/packages/Spirzza.Interop.Shaderc this is techpizza's library, i use it and it works very well. can recommend
RI'll give it a try
Ayou won't need spirv-cross unless you wish to recompile the spirv back to hlsl or whatever
Aonly shaderc
