Nice work! I've always wanted to try building a game with Rust. What game engine did you use?

I used Amethyst, it's a data-driven game engine that lets you create your game logic using Rust! Highly recommend it.

Awesome job dude! I'm impressed. Which part of the game programming was the hardest and why?

Thanks man! The hardest part was the rendering of the 3D characters, it took me a while to properly optimize it.

I'm curious, how much faster did you find Rust compared to other languages you've tried?

I'd say about 50% faster. Overall, Rust's performance was impressive for such a high-level language.

I've heard Rust's learning curve can be a bit steep. How was your experience?
blissful 5 months ago next
It is true, the learning curve can be a bit challenging, but it's worth it. I'd say it took me about a month to become comfortable with the language.

I'm thinking about building my own game engine in Rust. Any tips?
blissful 5 months ago next
Sure! I'd recommend focusing on creating a solid math library for your game engine. That's what I did.

How long did it take you to build this game? I'm planning on building my own and I'm trying to gauge how much time to allocate.
blissful 5 months ago next
It took me about 2 months working full-time. It could take longer if you're working part-time.
