The graphics engine is good enough for this prototype. Still need to add 3D textures, lighting, shadows, etc. but those will come once I've built the rest of the engine.

Right now I'm building my own 4D version of Unity's scene view. This will allow me to see what I'm working on and set up levels a lot faster. Also I'll need to build a 4D mesh editor into this since that's pretty important. Would be really awesome if I got this working in VR/3D.

Physics will be interesting. The old engine could do raycasting using sdf but this new engine will not be as simple. Maybe I could copy over VizionEck's physics engine and convert it to 4D. Could also modifiy it to support raycasting. I don't plan to need any detailed physics but basic stuff is crucial just to even select objects by clicking on them.
