Scene & Scene Manager // Zig Game Engine Series
Welcome back to the Game Engine Series! In this video we deep dive into Scenes in the game engine. I go over for the first time how dynamic dispatch with custom VTables works in Zig and how we can leverage that to allow game developers to write their own Scene structs which plug into the game engine
📚 Topics Covered:
Fixing LSP Intellisense
Building out the Scene struct with a custom VTable
Building out our scene manager
Refactoring our Application struct to control the main event loop
Writing our first game scene and plugging into the game engine
