Add 'engine' field #604

Open tzizi opened 6 years ago

Allow specifying the game engine for original games. Most game remakes tend to remake the engine as well as the game, so this could be an interesting field. While I don't personally think anything else should come out of it right yet (such as having the games themselves specify the engine, as it's quite rare that a game uses an engine without modifying some part of it), I think it would be neat for users to be able to see what is the base engine each original game uses.

What if we use the existing framework field?

tzizi commented 5 years ago

I believe the framework field specifies what the remake has used, not what the original game used.
