no idea how much time and work it might take, the hype could die down in-between if it's a long time
This is why it's best to write your game to be engine agnostic with integration points.
But It does feel like a waste of effort until something like this happens.
Can you show me a single engine agnostic game? I don't see how that's even remotely feasible
I guess it would be doable by trying to write a bunch of wrappers around engine specific stuff, but holy shit development would be... ugh. Slow and ultimately a confusing mess to maintain still
Imagine not writing your game in assembly
Roller Coaster Tycoon.
Pff i write my game with 1's & 0's in a text editor
