What it does

Haxe is a great programming language. Flixel is a great game engine. Put them together and you get something pretty magical, HaxeFlixel. After using this engine for almost two years now I've seen the same questions crop up again and again from beginners.

I love learning new things, but what I love more than learning is teaching people the things I've learnt. Seeing their faces when they get it like a lightbulb goes on in their head. I want to spend more of my time doing that and less of my time working a 9-5. Currently, I'm creating videos and writi

    Unity like game editor running in pure WASM2023 · raverie-us.github.io · ▲644

    In the wake of all the Unity nonsense, just wanted to toss the Raverie engine into this mix :) We’re building off a previous engine that we worked on for DigiPen Institute of Technology called the Zero Engine with a similar component based design architecture to Unity. Our engine had a unique feature called Spaces: separate worlds/levels that you can instantiate and run at the same time, which became super useful for creating UI overlays using only game objects, running multiple simulations, etc. The lighting and rendering engine is scriptable, and the default deferred rendering…

    NESFab – Programming language for making NES games2023 · pubby.games · ▲298

    This is a long-running personal project I've had to write an optimizing compiler from scratch. Everything was done by me, including the lexer/parser, SSA-based IR, high-performance data structures, and code generator. Originally I wasn't targeting the NES. It started as a scripting language, then it morphed into a C++ replacement, and then finally I turned it into what it is today. The large scope of the project and colorful history means it's still a little rough around the edges, but it's now working well enough to post.
