How+I+rewrote+my+C+++game+engine+or+framework+in+C

The document discusses rewriting a C++ game engine in C. It provides examples of converting C++ code like initializing arrays, passing vectors to shaders, and defining classes to equivalent C code using structs. It also mentions thanking people who helped with the C version implementation, including batch rendering. The overall structure of initializing, updating, rendering, and cleaning up remains the same between the C++ and C versions.
