Yes, I believe it does. Basicly, you have the core machanics of the game, so you don't have to worry about coding them, correct? Best Regards, Hayden

Basically, that means it is a piece of software that contains all of the core components of a game such as input, audio, game physics, game menus, etc. All of the core functionality is contained in the engine, but to create new games you can use a level editor to create new special items, characgters, levels, etc while the game mechanics are handled by the engine itself. I guess the closest thing you might understand to what I'm doing is the Audio Game Toolkit which used a level editor and xml settings to create new games, but the core functionality of the game was in its engine. does that make sense?
