NJST Game Engine

A high-performance, modular 3D game engine built in Java and powered by LWJGL (LightWeight Java Game Library).

🚀 Overview

NJST Game Engine is designed for real-time 3D rendering and integrated artificial intelligence simulations. It provides a robust framework for building interactive environments with specialized support for neural networks and evolutionary algorithms.

✨ Key Features

• Standard Rendering Pipeline: Efficient OpenGL-based renderer supporting custom GLSL shaders and SSBO (Shader Storage Buffer Objects).
• Core Engine Architecture: Clean separation between Scene Management, Rendering logic, and Game Objects.
• Integrated AI Systems:
  • Modular Neural Networks (Feedforward & Training).
  • Reinforcement Learning (Q-Learning) for intelligent agents.
  • Evolutionary Simulations for genetic-algorithm-based scenarios.
• Animation System: Keyframe-based animation support for objects and models.
• Physics Engine: Basic collision detection and physics simulation hooks.

🛠 Project Structure

• src/: Core source code for the engine and AI components.
• docs/: Technical documentation and deep dives into engine internals.
• run.sh: Linux shell script for compilation and execution.

🏁 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• JDK 8 or higher.
