This is why it's best to write your game to be engine agnostic with integration points.

But It does feel like a waste of effort until something like this happens.

Can you show me a single engine agnostic game? I don't see how that's even remotely feasible

I guess it would be doable by trying to write a bunch of wrappers around engine specific stuff, but holy shit development would be... ugh. Slow and ultimately a confusing mess to maintain still

Imagine not writing your game in assembly
