If you want to make a game, hell no.
However it can be quite the learning experience. If you do decide to take a knack at it, I'd go about it in sort of an agile way - think about what changes are necessary to get the next iteration out. That way you never get lost in the giant forest of possibilities of designing such an engine.
Best of luck.

For 2D games, yes.
>>
Design your own language as well.

>>60948988
No

Don't forget to do your own hardware.

In all seriousness, this is actually a good idea. I recommend http://www.projectoberon.com/ Mind you, the eventual game will probably be shit but you'll learn loads along the way. That's really the question for OP, if he wants people to give him money for this game, "fuck no, don't write an inferior engine". But if it's for shits-and-giggles, fire ahead.

Only if you do it in vulkan

write it in machine code

make sure to make your own architecture as well

run it on quinary and create new theorems of quinary algebra to create new quinary logic gates

don't forget to try different types of conductors or semi-conductor materials, in fact find new ones

No, look at the guys who made Cities: Skyline
Their first two games were made in own engine, but it was too much of a hassle to actually support that engine by a small team.

Going commercial engine will relive you of huge portion of the programming and will actually make your experience with your project much more pleasant.

give a man a game engine, and they'll make a game. teach a man to write a game engine, and they'll write game engines for the rest of their life.

GitGud.

>>60948988
it's never worth to make your own engine. ever.

unless you want an absurdly specific feature that no commercial engine can fulfill, which I find hard to believe.
