100% Ray Traced
Game engines have always used rasterization for rendering. Rayve replaces rasterization with ray tracing, which greatly simplifies the entire rendering pipeline and gives beautiful results.

Minimal Footprint
Rayve is very lightweight. Bloat and complexity are the enemy. New features will be carefully curated.

Current Limitations
Rayve's rendering technology is new and for now requires Window's PC's, higher-end Nvidia cards and Visual Studio. It is also proprietary, closed source and English only. Over time, some or all of these barriers could be removed.
