"This engine should not exist... but I'm gonna build it anyway."
SAGE (STYNTHREAD Advanced Game Engine) is a next-generation game engine in active development by C38 ImagineWorks.
More than an engine—SAGE is an act of reclamation, vision, and innovation. Built for devs who demand more from the systems they use, SAGE is crafted from the ground up inside Unreal Engine 5 to redefine the meaning of emotional consequence, memory-based logic, and player-driven immersion.
