Members from the Graphics Programming Discord have compiled together a trailer of games and graphics rendering technology that were created without the use of an off-the-shelf game engine. The GP-Direct video contains 21 different projects, made by various members of the community.<p>Check it out and see what can be created without a game engine.<p>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E07I1VRYlcg<p>These are the projects shown in the video:<p><pre><code> The Powder Box.
