Longford is a 2D, Lua-based game engine for Windows. It has the following features: + Sprite hierarchy. Sprites drawn in order according to a display "tree" allowing grouping of complex drawings. + Frame update, keypress and (multi)touch events which propagate through the display tree. + Creation of Sprites including polygon Shapes and rectangular Bitmaps with transparency (import as PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP, TGA) + Creation of Textfields based on bitmap fonts

...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.”

...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.

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,...
