raylib
A simple and easy-to-use library to enjoy videogames programming
raylib is highly inspired by Borland BGI graphics lib and by XNA framework. Do you want to see all functions available in raylib? Check raylib cheatsheet. raylib is a programming library to enjoy videogames programming; no fancy interface, no visual helpers, no auto-debugging, just coding in the most pure spartan-programmers way. raylib has received several recognitions in the last years and many people have written about the library. Here there are the main awards received from Google and Epic Games. raylib supports multiple target platforms, it has been tested in the following platforms but, technically, any platform that supports C language and OpenGL graphics is valid for raylib or can be very easily ported to. raylib can be combined with several extra libraries for additional functionality, some of those libraries are already used internally while others are provided for user integration, most of these libraries are single-file header-only with no external dependencies. -

libGDX
Desktop/Android/HTML5/iOS Java game development framework
libGDX is a cross-platform Java game development framework based on OpenGL (ES) that works on Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, your browser and iOS. libGDX provides a well-tried and robust environment for rapid prototyping and fast iterations. libGDX does not force a specific design or coding style on you; it rather gives you the freedom to create a game the way you prefer. Publish your games on Windows, macOS, Linux (including the RPi!), Android, iOS, and HTML5, all with the same code base. libGDX comes with batteries included. Write 2D or 3D games and let libGDX worry about low-level details. Heavy emphasis is put on avoiding garbage collection for ART/JavaScript by careful API design and the use of custom collections. libGDX is a well proven and reliable framework with a sound base and documentation. Furthermore, there are plenty of games built on top of libGDX, many of which are open source. -

Hungry Hero
Hungry Hero is an open source Flash game built on Starling Framework.
Hungry Hero is an open source Flash game developed with the Starling Framework, designed as an educational example for developers interested in Stage3D and GPU-accelerated game development. The game demonstrates how to leverage Starling’s features to create smooth, hardware-accelerated 2D experiences while maintaining cross-device compatibility through Adobe AIR and Flash. It showcases core concepts such as handling textures, sprite sheets, parallax backgrounds, and collision detection, providing a clear reference for building interactive games. The project also integrates advanced techniques like object pooling for performance, bitmap fonts for efficient text rendering, and Starling’s particle system extension for visual effects. Though originally built with the iPad 1 and 2 in mind, it can be adapted to multiple devices by adjusting configuration files, emphasizing the principle of “one code, multi-screen.” -

oge2d
Cross-platform 2D game engine
Open Game Engine 2D is a full features and cross-platform 2D game engine. It aims to help developers to create 2D games with only flat files (such as ini and script files), so that games could be written once and played under any platform supported. This engine is a pure 2D game engine written in C/C++. It is base on SDL and AngelScript. So, it also aims to run in any platform supported by SDL and AngelScript, such as Windows, Linux, MacOS, iPhone, Android, Windows Phone, Symbian, NDS, PSP... But, in current version, the engine only supports the following platforms: Windows, Linux, MacOS, Windows Mobile, Android, iPhone. -

Android Game Engine
Multi-threaded game engine for Android
AGE is a multi-threaded game engine for Android with OpenGL ES2 shader-based rendering. In-depth GL knowledge isn't necessary to start; use the OBJ loader to import models from Blender and elsewhere, attach textures, and start rendering! Threads run different activities, e.g. initialization, framerate, timer, game cycle. Apartment model with message passing. The drawing cycle is inverted from typical game loops. Framerate has a dedicated timer, and SurfaceView is in on-demand rendering mode. Game Objects (GOs) opt-in to services by implementing the "marker" interface for each one it wants. GOs enter the system via Install Pipeline, an asynchronous "standard" implementation that keys on the marker interfaces and performs the "protocol" for that marker. There are also Event and Uninstall pipelines. Reference by name is encouraged. A trip through the pipeline includes a Bind Name List; allows GO to connect to interfaces in other GOs on the other End. -

Android Walker
android walker touchscreen
A small project I did to try and program for Android. The program is written in Java with NetBeans. You can control a character with the touchscreen, the character will walk towards the point you are holding your finger on. Maybe I can use this to make something more interesting later, project is dead right not. But I want somewhere to save my sourcecode. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYk1kpMlyTU&feature=channel_video_title -

C-Lesh and SMW Engine
C-Lesh is a game programming language for 2D games.
C-Lesh is a game programming language for 2D games - mainly arcade and platform games. When combined with the Super Mario World (SMW) engine you can create awesome 2D platform games like Super Mario World. This language evolved from a "clone" of TI-BASIC which I began developing when I was having memory (segmentation fault) bugs with C. C-Lesh lacks memory allocation and destruction. There is no need to use pointers and you can never get memory leaks or program crashes caused by memory leaks. As C-Lesh is somewhat primitive you may like it if you are into C. I'd say its a step up from C for 2D games. Everything is set - all you need is a sprite sheet and some programming knowledge. -
