Developing game engine!
good day to all of you!!
I am interested in a project that says:
Game Engine Development ( 2D ) for my final year B.E project.
The thing is i have no experience or any knowledge about game engine development.
My professor says we can use VC++ but any other language would do.
I have been studying java and am more comfortable in it.
could yo tell me whether i shud pursue this project and if so then are there any good books, sites that i can read from?
Thankyou,
Have a great day!

Hi,
I believe what you're doing is within your grasp for a full year project.
It's probably on the upper end of the difficulty scale though, as far as school projects are concerned.
Your question is a little ambiguous though:
a 2D game engine for a tetris game, and a 2D game engine for Zelda are two very different beasts.
Personally, I haven't required any books for programming a 2D game. Just a solid knowledge of Java, and some careful thought should be enough.
Good luck
