"Our intention with Sandbox is to take a powerful game engine (Unreal Engine 4 right now) and build a hotloading C# layer on top of it. The idea being that you will never have to touch C++, you never have to wait for things to compile, you never have to close the game while developing.


We're hoping that what we're making is engine agnostic. Our goal was to build this on top of Source 2, but that seems unlikely now - as it's doubtful that would have any actual benefit over what we're currently doing."


the boys are back with basically gmod 2

also they upload blogs frequently about this project they are doing and you can see here

Damn Nice

[Mr Queeba]

if this goes through, it'll be cool. the source engine is really showing it's age and it's limits have been hit, and ue4 is a real good engine.

na, seems like it's a more general workflow change that should make UE4 easier to develop with. what they're making with it looks similar to gmod tho

[Fire Vine]

oh yes

[NotBomberguy]
