Planck.js is a JavaScript rewrite/port of the physics engine Box2D, designed to provide 2D rigid-body physics simulation usable directly in web contexts or any JavaScript environment. By offering collision detection, rigid-body dynamics, joints, and simulation capabilities, Planck.js makes it possible for developers to build physically realistic 2D games, simulations, or visualizations in browsers or Node.js without relying on native code. Its API mirrors Box2D’s concepts — bodies, fixtures,...

...This engine can power everything from dynamic interactive animations and educational simulations to fully fledged physics-based games, and it works across major browsers and devices. Through modules such as Matter.Body, Matter.Composite, and Matter.Constraint, developers can create complex scenes with multiple bodies, jointed structures, and collision responses. Matter.js is popular in the web development community due to its simplicity, extensibility, and rich documentation, allowing both beginners and experienced programmers to leverage physics without deep expertise.

Trial is a real-time, 3D game engine written in Common Lisp, offering a modern and modular approach to game development using the expressive power of Lisp. Built on top of the cepl graphics framework, Trial combines live-coding capabilities with powerful abstractions for building simulations, scenes, and interactive applications. It emphasizes flexibility, clarity, and developer control, making it an appealing choice for experimental games, visualizations, and research projects that benefit...

PlayCanvas is an open-source game engine. It uses HTML5 and WebGL to run games and other interactive 3D content in any mobile or desktop browser. PlayCanvas is used by leading companies in video games, advertising and visualization such as Animech, Arm, BMW, Disney, Facebook, Famobi, Funday Factory, IGT, King, Miniclip, Leapfrog, Mojiworks, Mozilla, Nickelodeon, Nordeus, NOWWA, PikPok, PlaySide Studios, Polaris, Product Madness, Samsung, Snap, Spry Fox, Zeptolab, Zynga. The PlayCanvas Engine...

...The platform allows developers, creators, and players to build and modify worlds together in real time without managing complex backend infrastructure. The Mirror supports visual scripting, traditional coding, asset management, physics simulation, and multiplayer networking out of the box. With built-in support for desktop, multiplayer, and VR experiences, it serves as an alternative to platforms such as Roblox and Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN). Its focus on collaborative creation, live editing, and integrated development tools helps streamline the process of building interactive games and virtual experiences.

...As a mature and full-featured engine, Torque3D provides developers with a comprehensive editor suite that supports terrain sculpting, environment creation, and complex scene design, alongside powerful tools for materials, particle effects, and visual scripting. It has robust support for physics, animation, lighting, shaders, and networking, making it suitable for a wide range of 3D applications from driving simulators to multiplayer games and interactive experiences. Using modern shader pipelines, support for COLLADA and other model formats, and advanced rendering techniques such as deferred lighting and volumetric effects, Torque3D allows creators to build visually rich worlds that can be deployed on Windows, macOS, Linux, and even the web.
