SFML and Box2d
« on: September 05, 2020, 03:50:41 am »
Hello!!

does Box2d converts SFML into a Game Engine ?

a pretty absurd question, but i still don't get what a Game Engine is, since many people have done games using SFML (indeed, a packt book exists)

Thanks.

It's irrelevant.
SFML stays SFML, it doesn't convert into something else when you use another library with it.
You can use many libraries to eventually make a game engine, but each of these libraries aren't game engines.

I got it, but looks like both are able to construct any good 2d game ...

Thanks
