Creating a Scene Manager & Delta Time Variable | Coding a 2D Game Engine in Java #3

In this tutorial, I go over how to create a scene manager that will allow the game engine to switch between different "scenes", which are abstract objects that contain a game world. Next, we set up a delta time variable that can be used inside the scene manager, this delta time variable contains how much time has elapsed since the last frame. I then show how to use both of these concepts, by creating a transition from one scene to another by fading to black over 2 seconds.
