#2It's a really impressive project. Also check out the associated scene editor https://github.com/mrDIMAS/rusty-editor
Check out the UI framework that it uses https://github.com/mrDIMAS/rg3d-ui

#3What I love about this engine, is that I can really easily read the code and reason what it does. I'd guess that given an hour or so of study I would feel reasonably confident in trying to modify it.

#4The graphics looks like it's from 15-20 years ago. Modern game engines are so far ahead of this, rg3d has a lot of catching up to do.

#5This project is what I would call data oriented, as discussed yesterday on hn https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24506744.
It takes some parts of ECS but the UI is OOP-ish. I wonder if there is a good ECS UI architecture. I have been exploring this lately in Rust, and right now I have settled on jquery style selectors (don't laugh) where you have a generic entity builder and associate a selector (id + class list) with each entity. When an event fires, you check what selectors are associated with the focused entity and call the associated callbacks. I also do this for rendering. I'm not too crazy about this though. But I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do behavior composition in Rust.

That might be true for the most cutting edge 3D shooters. But nowadays that’s not all that matters. I’m sure this can find a niche.

It's a single person project. I haven't seen a more advanced rust engine. Adding better rendering isn't too bad once you have some engine architecture.

Agreed, this feature set looks like an incredible amount of work for a year.
Interestingly it seems it started as a shooter game more than an engine — explains why the feature set is tailored towards that.

Could this not just be a case of using something on hand / creating them relatively quickly and not a limitation of the engine itself?

I agree. Dmitry used to work on tools at Larian (studio behind Divinity: Original Sin) so he had a decent amount of experience.
