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. -

Dungeon Craft
Updated emulator of Forgotten Realms: Unlimited Adventures
Up to date code, including latest engine and editor releases: https://github.com/grannypron/uaf Dungeon Craft Community Forums: https://forums.goldbox.games/index.php#c8 Dungeon Craft is an adventure creator that emulates the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Gold Box RPG's released by SSI. Initially designed to be a "more unlimited" version of the Forgotten Realms: Unlimited Adventures (FRUA) game editor and engine, it has far surpassed the capabilities of the old FRUA system. The editor is used to configure art, items, monsters, spells, special abilities, classes and races.. Each adventure is self-contained and doesn't require the editor to be played. The editor is extremely versatile and the databases are completely designer created allowing easy additions and modifications to spells, monsters, items, classes, races and special abilities, and are exportable to be easily shared with others or used in other designs. -

slua-unreal
lua dev plugin for unreal engine 4 or 5
Slua-unreal is an unreal4 plugin, which allows you to use Lua language to develop game logic and hot fix your code. It gives you 3 ways to wrap your C++ interface to Lua, including reflection by blueprint, C++ template, and static code generation. It also enables two-way communication between Blueprint and Lua. The advantage of Lua over C++ is that it requires no compilation for logic change, which significantly speeds up the game development process. -

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.
