EnTT in Action
EnTT
is widely used in private and commercial applications. I cannot even
mention most of them because of some signatures I put on some documents time
ago. Fortunately, there are also people who took the time to implement open
source projects based on EnTT
and didn't hold back when it came to documenting
them.
Below an incomplete list of games, applications and articles that can be used as
a reference.
Where I put the word apparently means that the use of EnTT
is documented but
the authors didn't make explicit announcements or contacted me directly.
If you know of other resources out there that are about EnTT
, feel free to
open an issue or a PR and I'll be glad to add them to this page.
I hope the following lists can grow much more in the future.
- Minecraft by Mojang: of course, that Minecraft, see the open source attributions page for more details.
