It is.

If you want a big programming project and want to learn lots of things
about game engine programming, do it in Forth, and depending on how
fast you are, you will be done in months or years.  If, OTOH, the
purpose is to get the game done, start with a game engine (two that
come to my mind are the Unreal engine and Unity, but
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_game_engines> lists many more).
