Axmol is a modern C++ game engine forked from Cocos2d-x, designed to support high-performance 2D and lightweight 3D game development across multiple platforms. It improves upon the original Cocos2d-x with a cleaner architecture, better tooling, and support for modern C++ standards. Axmol supports scripting with Lua and JavaScript, and is suitable for both indie developers and studios targeting mobile, desktop, and web platforms. With an active community and frequent updates, Axmol is a solid...

Redot Engine is an open-source game engine that aims to provide a flexible foundation for building games — likely offering a modern, modular structure so developers can compose only the systems they need (rendering, physics, input, scripting, etc.). It is built to give a base framework rather than a full “batteries-included” engine, which makes it suitable for developers who prefer minimalism, want complete control over architecture, or desire to build custom workflows. Because it’s...

...A strength of Macroquad is its cross-platform reach: it supports desktop (Windows, Linux, macOS), web (via WebAssembly / HTML5), and mobile (Android, iOS) without requiring platform-specific code. Compilation is relatively fast with minimal dependencies, so small projects or prototypes can spin up quickly. Because it’s “batteries included” for common tasks (rendering, drawing shapes, text, basic UI, game loop), Macroquad works well for rapid prototyping.

HaxeFlixel is an open-source 2D game framework built on top of the cross-platform toolkit Haxe + OpenFL, designed to allow developers to build games that can run on web, desktop, and mobile targets from a single codebase. Because it uses Haxe and OpenFL, HaxeFlixel games can compile to many targets: native desktop (Windows, macOS, Linux), mobile (Android, iOS), as well as web (HTML5), and even historically Flash. It is licensed under MIT and completely free for personal or commercial use....

Ebitengine (formerly known as Ebiten) is a lightweight, open-source 2D game engine built for the Go programming language. It is designed to be simple and easy to use, allowing developers to build games quickly with a clean and minimal API. Ebitengine supports cross-platform deployment, including desktop, mobile, web, and select console platforms. The engine provides essential features such as 2D graphics rendering, input handling, and audio playback. Developers can work with transformations,...

Orx is a portable, lightweight, plugin-based, data-driven and extremely easy to use 2D-oriented game engine. As orx is data driven, it allows users to create games with a small number of lines of code and reduces drastically the development time.

GamePlay (also known as Gameplay3D) is an open-source, cross-platform C++ game engine and framework that supports both 2D and 3D game development on desktop and mobile platforms. Designed to be lightweight yet powerful, it provides developers with robust tools for graphics rendering, scene management, audio, physics, input, and more, as well as templates and tools to help jumpstart projects. The framework emphasizes ease of use and portability, offering native support for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android so developers can write their game once and deploy it across many platforms. ...
