I'm quite happy to find a project like Dagon (https://code.dlang.org/packages/dagon) receiving more improvements. Already, it has quite a number of cutting edge features. The developer has really put time into writing a very good Tutorial on using it...which he continues to update. He's also working on a 3D physics engine for it (https://github.com/gecko0307/dmech)


You can support his work on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/gecko0307).

Have any of you tried it recently?

I haven't got to try Dagon nor dmech, although I can vouch for dlib being a nice piece of work. I am using dlib.math for my 3D project and I believe it's the best 3D math library for D for the moment. gl3n comes close, but it made a mistake of going for the row-major matrices, which feels out of place in OpenGL.

I've been using dagon now for a couple of months with hobby projects and it is excellent. I can now code in D with a very easy to use 3D API so I've dropped Ogre and C++ completely for making my hobby games.

Cheers,
