NGT: (New Game Toolkit)

Welcome to NGT! An open source game engine using AngelScript as its internal scripting language.

Currently, NGT is positioned as a game engine for users with visual impairments, but we should think about the possibility of making it possible to create visual games.

Now the engine is under development, it contains some problems and bugs that we need to fix, but we can still say about a few features.

Features

• Support for Multiple Screen Readers: Accessibility is key for users with visual impairments, allowing user to receive speech messages with any screen reader.
• 3D Soundsystem: Use 3D audio positioning, reverbs, lowpass, highpass and notch filters to achieve realistic sound in games.
• File and Filesystem: Use this to work with the user progress (For example, to save a game).
• Encryption: Use the AES256 algorithm to protect user passwords, game resources, etc.
• Networking system: Create online games.

Since NGT is not yet ready for use and contains many problems, your contribution to this project to improve it is very important to us.
