Managine is a 3D engine including an asset management, rendering, animation, physics and sound system. Special emphasis lies on several rendering aspects, in-game resource management and real-time creation of objects. Based on this engine two different games were created and evaluated based on their performance and usability. On a CPU with 3.30GHz both games run with 60 frames per seconds. For each of Managines features, around 1 to 8 lines of codes are necessary, for integration.

Managine is composed of many subsystems, including an asset management-, physics-, renderer- and sound-system. Character animations, graphical interfaces and the handling of game resources are supported by Managine as well. The engine itself initializes these systems and executes them in a loop. In addition to the systems, the engine also handles specified actors. Actors are defined by Managine. All actors have an update function which gets carried out by the engine.
