Description
Damon Slye wrote:
"The main engine at Dynamix was called "The Virtual Machine". It handled graphics and UI and math. It was a generalized system that abstracted the specific platform so that the games could run on PC, Amiga, Mac, and even C-64 and Apple II. Every game at Dynamix used the virtual machine. We also had 3Space which was used in nearly all of the games that had any kind of 3D graphics. Beyond that there were many different technologies that we shared to do things like packing, patching, image re-creation/animation, etc."
