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.

It enjoys a substantial community, many forks and extensions (for physics, tilemaps, multiplayer, live wallpapers, etc.), which increases its versatility — from simple casual games to more feature-rich 2D titles.
