About this ebook
If you’re an experienced C++ developer looking to design, build, and optimize your own high-performance game engine, this is your blueprint.
Most books waste your time with beginner fluff. This one gets straight to the engineering. You’ll learn how to create your own modular, scalable, production-ready game engine—step-by-step—without filler or irrelevant toy examples.
Inside you’ll discover:
Engine Architecture That Scales – Learn the Entity-Component System, modular design, and proven game engine patterns.
Rendering Systems & Graphics Pipelines – From API setup (OpenGL, DirectX, Vulkan) to advanced rendering techniques like deferred shading, shadow mapping, and reflections.
Physics Integration – Implement Bullet, Box2D, or your own collision detection and rigid body dynamics.
Input & Event Handling – Cross-platform systems for keyboards, controllers, touchscreens, and custom mappings.
Audio Systems – Spatial and positional audio with real-time performance optimization.
Performance Engineering – Memory pooling, cache optimization, and multithreading strategies for real-time responsiveness.
What makes this book different:
Written exclusively for developers who already know C++.
Practical exercises that build components you can actually use.
Detailed infographics to make complex systems instantly clear.
Production-ready C++ sample code to adapt and extend in your own projects.
Whether you want to launch your own indie engine, stand out for AAA studio roles, or simply master the deep engineering behind modern games, Game Engine Foundations With C++ delivers the knowledge, patterns, and workflows you need.
Stop just using game engines—start building them. Scroll up and click Buy Now to begin.
