Danmagine

Danmagine is a new game engine especially made for easily creating Danmakus (i.e. shoot'em-ups with a hell lot of bullets). The main goal of this project is to allow anyone to make the shoot'em-up they want, whether it is a simple shoot'em up level or a complete game which requires advanced patterns and efficient objects management. Danmagine should not require any programming skills, what's needed will be learnt through the tutorials.

Danmagine relies on a core program extended by a scripting language. This scripting language is designed in such a way that it allows you to perform usual yet complex tasks in a single instruction while providing you lots of tools to go further. It is also designed with modularity in mind: most of the game logic is exposed to scripting, allowing you to tweak the engine's behaviour at will. Instead of modifying it, you can also extend it by using the libraries: design your own library and add it to your project in a clean way.

In Danmagine, everything is scriptable and you're provided what you need to do it. Menus, levels, sounds, musics, player, enemies, decor, everything can be done your way using functions, attributes, events, tasks and all the other tools and structure you have at your disposal.

The engine is constantly and rapidly improving. If you feel something's missing, just ask. It'll probably appear in the next version.
