Prototyping a game engine architecture as a multi-agent system

The game engines are one of the essential and daily used applications on the game development field. These applications are designed to assist in the creation of this type of contents. Nevertheless, their usage and development are very complex. Moreover, there are not many research papers about the game engine architecture definition and specification. In this sense, this work presents a methodology to specify a game engine defined as a multi-agent system. In such a way, from a multi-agent approximation, a game engine architecture can be prototyped in a fast way. Also, this implementation can be exported to a general programming language for maximum performance, facilitating the definition and comprehension of the mechanisms of the game engine.
