Vanda Engine is a free and open source 3D game engine for Windows. I'm developing this game engine for years to help the students and other enthusiast learn game engine programming and develop 3D games for free. While giant companies are building game engines with huge budget and a lot of manpower, I'm developing this free 3D game engine alone with no budget.

I have published step by step tutorials about Vanda Engine, 3D tools, and COLLADA format:

Please follow Vanda Engine on Facebook to be informed about what I'm doing:

Check out Vanda Engine website to see how Vanda Engine is getting work done:

It will be appreciated if you donate to this project so I can buy required software and books and hire people to produce free 2D and 3D assets and educational videos and tutorials for this game engine:
