I like the occasional HN troll as much as the next guy, but I’m afraid that it wasn’t a joke. The page has screenshots with big fat pixels and says it’s an ECS game engine so I assumed it was, well, a game engine for the ECS. I since learned that ECS has another meaning that I wasn’t yet familiar with.

I might’ve realized this wasn’t for the Amiga if I had read the page (or looked at the screenshots) better though.

I think ECS here is "entity-component system", a design pattern that seems related to data-oriented design.
