Welcome to the nrEngine webpage
nrEngine is a small but powerfull game-application-engine. The engine does provide the developers with a low level functionality like resource managment, scripting, event system etc. A plugin framework allows to improve the functionality of the engine on the fly. The engine is written in Standard C++ and runs on all common platforms.
The engine has been designed with the goal of providing the developers a simple but powerfull API. It is not designed to be a replacement but an enrichment in the development process of a game or any other application.
