### [Fyrox][fyrox]

[![Youtube screenshot: a head with a combination of face expressions](

[Fyrox][fyrox] ([GitHub][fyrox-src], [Discord][fyrox-dis], [Twitter][fyrox-twi])
is a game engine that aims to be easy to use and provide a large set
of out-of-the-box features. This month's highlights include:

- [Basic Android support][fyrox-android] for GLES3.0+ devices - usable
but the renderer lacks mobile-specific optimizations.
- [Lightmapper fixes][fyrox-lightmapper].
- [Blend shapes][fyrox-blend-shapes] allows to dynamically change 3D meshes
(usefull for facial animation, etc).
- Fyrox now uses [tinyaudio] as [its sound output backend][fyrox-audio-improvements].

Full devlogs: [#17][fyrox-17], [#18][fyrox-18].
