This is the old version of Eruption Engine the new remake is in this repository

Eruption Rendering Engine

This is my own rendering engine using Vulkan as its graphical API. I started this project in late March of 2022 because I wanted to learn more about modern computer graphics and I'm still working on it to this day.
