I enjoyed what I learned from Mike but I really wanted an engine that would work on multiple platforms so that I could reach a larger audience.
So to get an engine that would suit my needs I decided to develop my own game engine using platform independent C++ code. This has been quite an under taking and my engine is not yet complete nor completely platform independent. However, I have finished a significant part of my engine and it works on both Mac OSX and Linux. Continue reading 2D Game Engine Mac OSX/Linux
