ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Irrlicht engine extensions

Okay kiddo, listen up! So imagine you have a really cool toy car, but it can only do a few things like drive forward and turn left or right. That's like the regular Irrlicht Engine, it's a really cool tool that helps people make video games, but it only does a few things on its own.

But what if you could add some special parts to your toy car, like a rocket booster or a grappling hook? Then your toy car could do even more things and be even cooler! That's what Irrlicht Engine extensions are. They're like special parts or add-ons that you can attach to the engine to make it do even more things that it couldn't do before.

For example, some extensions might let you add really fancy graphics or make the game run smoother. Others might let you make the game more interactive by adding new ways for the players to control their characters. Basically, extensions make the engine better and more powerful, so that game designers can make even cooler games.

Does that make sense, kiddo?
