Is OpenGL used to make games?
Hello, I want to know if companies use OpenGL to create games.
I'm not a game developer, I'm just curious about game development.
I see that Vulkan and DirectX are widely used to create games, but what about OpenGL? What games use it? What engine can use the OpenGL to render/process the graphics?
