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.

    tStudio3D
    tStudio3D is published here on SourceForge.net as part of an effort to curate it as an old-school game development platform -- as a museum artifact. This curation work is being done so that young enthusiasts can explore a sampling of the early tools in 3D game development from the late 1990s and early 2000s. In support of this curation effort, tStudio3D has been freshly rebuilt to run on Windows 11 using Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 (as of April 2023). No future development is planned. tStudio3D is a set of realtime 3D applications based on a custom implementation of the Genesis3D game engine. Use tDesigner3D to create BSP maps. Organize scenes live with tDirector3D. Distribute and run tDirector3D scenes with tDeployer3D.
