RetroWar-common

RetroWar-common is a Java library that extends LibGDX. It contains all the common functions that are shared between games developed for the RetroWar project. However it will be useful for non-RetroWar games, game jam games, etc . Most programmers seem to develop their own libraries of common code after doing several games, and this is mine!
