Title: The Liquid Game Engine(A simple java game engine!)
Post by: TheBreadCat on March 03, 2012, 05:34:17 PM
The Liquid Game Engine
Or LGE, is a simple java game engine. With no other dependencies than java itself.
It is meant for fast and fun game development and is quite newbie friendly.

After a lot of testing, the engine has been proven to be far from finished. I will discourage you to download it and use it now. A big update will be coming up in the near future.

Features:
  • Drawable images
  • Mouse and keyboard
  • Sprite-sheet based animations
  • Sound
  • Worlds and entities
  • Axis aligned bounding box collisions
  • 100% pure java(yeah that's a feature)
  • And more coming..

Planned features:
  • Plugins
  • Graphical effects
  • Tweens
  • Particles

Tutorials and Documentation:
The main tutorial thread. (http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=24828.msg701024)

Downloads:
The Liquid Game Engine V1.2 (http://adf.ly/6Dv04)
Documentation:
The Liquid Game Engine V1.2 Java Docs(Online) (http://www.thebreadcat.com/LGE/V1.2/docs/index.html)

Games:
None so far.

Last Words:
Please come with feedback, features and fixes.
If there is a bug in the engine I'll try to fix it :)
And if anyone feels like making a logo, there will be a cookie waiting for you.

Ok, i finally got the java docs done, so they are both included in the download and on my website. The source code is also in the download.

I might finish the first tutorial today.

Checking this out now. You included the source code in the ZIP (in the directory scr not src). The folder name does not match the package. You also haven't specified a license.

Since this seems to be your first release, you might want to clean things up (i.e. remove deprecated methods).

oops, I've been quite busy lately so I kinda rushed the release, and forgot about the license. I'll update it and fix some stuff when i get home.
