Cross Platform Game Engine

Vertices Engine

The Vertices Engine is the in-house developed game engine from @VirtexEdgeDesign & @rtroe based in and built from the ground up in C#. It uses @MonoGame as it’s back end allowing it to run cross platform on PC, OSX, Linux, iOS and Android.

There are recently released Nuget packages which can be found through the badge links below so that users can play around with Vertices on their own machines.

IN-GAME SANDBOX FOR RAPID LEVEL DESIGN

A number of Vertices games are sandbox based, and so the engine is built an integrated in-game editor to add, modify and change a game on the fly.

INTEGRATED TERRAIN EDITOR

CUSTOMIZABLE AND SINKABLE GUI SYSTEM

Vertices supports a number of GUI elements from basic buttons and toolbars to more advanced Ribbon Bars and Property Grib controls.

INTEGRATED DEBUG SYSTEM

To help with game development and profiling, Vertices comes with a number of debug profilers and tools.

FARSEER AND BEPU PHYSICS LIBRARY SUPPORT

Vertices comes with physics support for BEPU and Farseer.

NETWORKING

Vertices uses Lidgren to handle it’s netcode back end, and is integrated into the engine, allowing for fast prototyping of networked games.

RENDERING PIPELINE

Vertices comes with a extensible and plug-and-play renderering pipeline. There is a more indepth look at the renderering pipeline over at Virtex’s main site here.
