The NintendoWare Bezel Engine is a Nintendo-developed engine and middleware for use on Nintendo Switch. It is the successor to NintendoWare middleware. Nintendo uses it for some games, and it is mainly used for third-party development.
History
At Game Developers Conference 2018, Nintendo announced Bezel Engine, an engine and middleware for use by first and third-party companies on the Nintendo Switch.[1]
Features
- Built-in shader system (PBR)
- Post effects
- 3D physics engine (using NVIDIA's PhysX system)
- 2D physics engine (using Box2D or LiquidFun)
- Scripting (via Lua) and a dedicated scripting debugger
- Networking system (Nintendo's peer-to-peer Pia network system or NEX)
- Nintendo Switch System Feature support (such as HD Rumble and the IR Motion Camera)
- Complete asset building system
Bezel Engine is extensible for developers, allowing for modular capabilities inside of the engine. Open source libraries and proprietary libraries can form a more modular developer environment.[2]
The engine is also technically backward compatible with NintendoWare, so developers can leverage experience and can port assets and audio.
