# Derp - Engine
Derp is a very simple and yet to be powerful game engine for 2D and 3D games written in D. It is supposed to be a *hybrid engine*, providing both a D and a Lua interface. Thus it will be possible to write application code both in D (compiled) or Lua (scripted, dynamically loaded and executed with [LuaD](https://github.com/jakobovrum/LuaD/)).
## Goals
It is planned that derp features
- 2D and 3D Graphics via [OpenGL](http://www.opengl.org/)
- audio via [OpenAL](http://openal.org/)
- simple, extensible resource loading, with many already supported types ([ASSIMP](http://assimp.sourceforge.net/))
- simple distribution (see also [Derper](#derper))
- powerful scene graph with entity/component system
- full scene serialization (level files etc.)
- full access to engine API from LUA
- *and probably more*
**Derper** is a simple to use loader for fully scripted derp applications. Similar to the distribution method of [Löve2D](http://love2d.org) packages, derper will be able to open a package containing all application data. This should make it very easy to distribute (open-source) projects for all supported platforms.
**HerpDerp** is a planned scene graph editor for the derp engine. This subproject has not yet been started.
