A minimalistic arcade-oriented toolkit on top of Pixel.

Why another game framework / engine?

Because I love Go, I love Pixel and I love classic arcade games and I wanted to combine all these 3 passions in a simple package that allowed me and others to have fun developing arcade games.

Objectives

  • Simple, so it is easy to learn and use, providing a coherent API.
  • Focused, as it is oriented to build 2D arcade games only.
  • Modular, just include those packages you're interested in.
  • Well tested, providing a rock-solid foundation for your games.
  • Fast, performance should be the best it can, provided that this goal does not collide with the previous ones.

Features

  • Animated sprites with animation subpackage.
  • Collision detection and handling using AABB in collision subpackage.
  • Level loading with layering, grid and custom properties support in level subpackage.
  • Simple game status management with scene subpackage.
  • Text effects with textfx subpackage.
