In my opinion, it's currently in a state where it is a rigid monolithic 
architecture where adding features even by touching the core code is 
very hard. It should start by being flexible there. Then make it scripted.

Adding a pattern, an object, a camera projection, or a different 
lighting algorithm shouldn't take months of trying to figure out the 
existing code.
