> I think it's an engine when you can modify it.
yes, that's what i was talking about. these people
who think that blitz3d is NOT a game engine are
missing the point. all programs that make it easier
to make a game are game engines, imo.
if you take a step back and look at what all these
"game engines" have in common, you'll see they
all provide a higher-level language to work in,
that's where i make my definition of "game engine"
ie. a program that provides a higher-level language
that is designed to make games.
blitz3d clearly falls into this category.
