Reimplementation of the Genie engine used by Age of Empires games.

openage is a developing game-engine implementation for real-time strategy games built on the Genie Engine, including Age of Empires titles. It converts assets from original game installations rather than supplying those assets itself. The source-built engine combines C++ and Python components with a separate game-data format; its documentation explicitly warns that gameplay is currently largely nonfunctional.
