Traktor is an open-source 3d game engine written in C++, it has powered several successful commercial titles across various platforms including Steam, PSN, iOS, and the Mac Store.
Traktor isn't just another game engine; it's a meticulously crafted toolkit designed for optimal performance and flexibility. Here's why it stands out:
-
Lean and Well-Designed: Each module boasts clean responsibilities, ensuring an elegant and efficient codebase.
-
Minimal Footprint: Traktor prioritizes low memory and storage usage, ensuring streamlined performance.
-
Optimized for Efficiency: Utilizing modern rendering techniques and efficient algorithms, Traktor delivers exceptional performance.
-
Tailored Flexibility: Unlike bloated, one-size-fits-all engines, Traktor is customizable to fit the unique needs of every project.
Traktor currently offers full support for Windows and Linux platforms. While mobile versions for Android and iOS are available, they are not officially tested but are regularly updated to maintain compatibility.
See releases for prebuilt binaries. However the releases should not be expected to be latest and therefor we recommend building the engine from source for latest bug fixes and features.
