Open Source Server Operating Systems Game Development Frameworks

XAMOS is a cross-platform reimplementation of AMOS BASIC based on jAMOS, fully re-written in C++ with SDL libraries. Currently runtime only, however is widely compatible with jAMOS projects.

CrossBrowdy is a free and open-source JavaScript framework that allows to create multimedia apps, emulators, game engines and games that will be compatible with any device. Any software developed with CrossBrowdy should be able to be used in any JavaScript compatible web client (including browser plug-in, add-on, extension, app...) which supports "document.getElementById". This framework allows any developer to manage easier many different things, such as audio (with Flash fallback, audio pool, etc.), canvas (with DHTML, VML, Flash or Silverlight fallbacks), screen, mouse, keyboard, gamepads, sockets (including PHP proxy fallback), XHR / AJAX (with PHP proxy for cross-domain requests), device sensors (compass / magnetometer, gyroscope, accelerometer, light sensor, proximity sensor...) and many more.

Alpha: - Still in heavy development, but should be stable enough for use in small projects. - Features include OpenGL ES based scene graph system, sound (static and streaming), input handlers, scheduler, async job queues, and much more. - Supported platforms include iOS, Android, OSX, Linux, Windows, HTML5 (Emscripten).

FPGAmer is a framework to develop embedded games. Our development platform is the Xilinx University Program Virtex-II-Pro but not limited to that. FPGAmer includes custom hardware components plus a custom software framework and some sample games.
