    game developers are relying on a small number of game engine vendors

    That’s why open source solutions are so important, but obviously they take time to reach maturity.

      There’s a good thing about open source solutions: you can just fork them and fix the issues. Something is unavailable in the default renderer? Slightly adjust the current one.

      Well, luckily the two big bad commercial engines, while not open source, are at least source-available, though it requires you to actually ask them for the source access, which might be a bit of an ordeal. You can just point an LLM at the codebase to help you debug this kind of weird shit.
