What's the best java/C# library to make gamus? >inb4

For 2D shit, Monogame is a port of the solid XNA Framework. Gives you all the basics but nowhere near the level of handholding that comes with Unity

>>58606640
is there something like SDL or SFML but for java and C#?

>>58606640
This.

But if you design your game to have any online component or be a competitive multiplayer game in any way, better forget Java and C#. People will decompile the shit out of it to cheat.

I've seen this pixel type art before and am therefore very disappointed at the lack of hovering blue balls with eyes.

There's that LWJGL thing Minecraft is written in.

I've helped fellow students with with Unity/ Unreal 4/ Starling (actionscript 3) / Cocos2D-X / LOVE / LibGDX games here at my College


my recommendation is to go with LibGDX with Java

1- because it popular and has a lot of support, both the LibGDX framework and obviously the Java language

you can find several Books on Amazon on how to make your games on LibGDX games, also there are a couple of Good course on Udemy and Youtube

2- Multiplatform, works on Windows/Linux/osX, Android/iOS

and even HTML5 so it that can be played any browser even on phone browsers (thought with reduced features and fewer external libraries)

on Desktops you can have your full game run on browsers through Java,

3- Level Editor, the Overlap2D editor made for LibGDX is probably the best level editor for a framework, allows you to make good levels that aren't just a bunch of squares like Tiled, you can easily edit your objects physics polygon models and generate spritesheets from the entire level, As well as making it much much easier to make good looking UI and HUDs

once you have your game engine written, it's the closest your get to having a full Game Engine IDE like Unity/Unreal without all the Bloat of making a game on them and having absolute control on all the background code


and before everyone asks

>Java

While Java isn't as fast as C++, well coded Java has great performance, the problem with Java is that it has so many safety nets

in a language like C++ a badly coded program would simple stop working if it managed to run at all, but Java with it's safety nets allows badly coded programs to run poorly

if you actually know what your doing and pool your resources instead of relying on the Java trash collector to clean up your mess, you won't have any problems with performance

There's a C# SFML binding.
