Nova

Nova is a 2D game framework written in Rust.

This is a sort of spiritual successor to Tetra, a game engine I worked on between 2018 and 2022. It aims to be smaller and simpler, with less global state.

⚠️ Use at your own risk! This framework is still very experimental, and the API is constantly in flux. No support is offered, but you are welcome to use to the code as reference or fork it for your own needs.

Features

• ldtk (enabled by default): enables a module to load ldtk files.
• static_bundled_build: enables automatic SDL3 library building and linking. Building SDL3 can take a bit during that first build (usually 1 minute or more).

Notes

• This framework is very heavily inspired by FNA, and NoelFB's lightweight game engines (Blah and Foster).
• It depends on SDL3 for interacting with the underlying platform.
