Luxinia Hobbyist Game Engine 0.91 Released

A new version of 3D graphics engine Luxinia, written partly in developer-friendly scripting language Lua, has been released. The Luxinia Engine was written to be "easy to use, extendable, and entirely scriptable from the outside," and capable of creating demos in a short amount of time. Version 0.91 has been released, bringing the final product closer to fruition. New for 0.91 is the inclusion of Project Xmas, a sample game included with the downloadable package. "Project Xmas had its roots in our first engine," explains the development team. "But it was quite low-level and not quite finished. We now took up the challenge to remake this game and Luxinia is a great help. It was astonishing how quick the game logic was setup. Even a comfortable mapeditor was made within a few days! The whole project consists of about 3800 lines of luacode (this is the mapeditor, vehicle test and the full game), which is very few!"
