Features

• 2D Game Frameworks - Provides a comprehensive 2D game framework for Flutter with hardware-accelerated graphics and a real-time game loop.
• 2D Rigid Body Physics Engines - Integrates external physics engines to simulate rigid body dynamics and collisions in a 2D environment.
• Entity Component Systems - Provides a component-based entity system for managing game objects through a hierarchical architecture.
• Game Loops - Runs a continuous update and render cycle to maintain consistent game state and frame rates.
• Collision Detection - Provides a system for detecting overlaps and intersections between game objects to trigger physical responses.
• Asset Pipelines - Ships a dedicated pipeline for loading and caching game assets, including sprites, texture atlases, and Tiled maps.
• Asset Management Systems - Includes a comprehensive system for importing, caching, and managing images, audio, and tile maps.
• Unified Input Handling - Provides a unified system for processing interactions from keyboards, mice, and gamepads to trigger game events.
• Asset Loading Systems - Imports data, tile maps, and vector graphics from both local and network sources.
• 2D Rendering Engines - Displays images, sprites, and animations using sprite sheets to create 2D visual elements.
• Game Integration - Enables the integration of real-time interactive game elements and graphics into cross-platform Flutter applications.
• Game Object Architectures - Uses a hierarchical component architecture to compose game entities from reusable logic and state modules.
• Event-Driven Input Handlers - Translates hardware gestures and gamepad signals into system actions through a centralized input handling layer.
• Game Input Mapping - Translates raw touch gestures and gamepad signals into high-level game commands and state changes.
• Network Image Caching - Fetches and caches images from remote URLs to optimize the size of local asset bundles.
• Asset Caches - Implements in-memory caching for images and audio to eliminate runtime latency during asset retrieval.
• Blocking Task Offloaders - Executes heavy computations in separate Dart isolates to prevent main thread blocking and frame drops.
• Rive Animation Integration - Renders vector-based animations within a two-dimensional environment to provide dynamic visual elements.
• Audio Playback - Handles background music and simultaneous sound effect playback with pre-loading to prevent runtime delays.
• On-Demand Audio Triggers - Triggers short audio clips for immediate playback during specific game events.
• Background Music Controllers - Controls looping music tracks with functions to play, pause, resume, and stop playback.
• Particle Effect Simulations - Generates and manages large numbers of small visual elements to create atmospheric or explosive effects.
• Texture Atlases - Supports loading sprite sheets using coordinate data to efficiently render individual 2D graphics.
• Vector Graphics Renderers - Parses Lottie and Rive data formats to render dynamic vector graphics within the game scene.
• Tile Map Renderers - Renders tile maps created in external editors as components to build 2D levels and environments.
• Lottie Players - Parses animations exported as JSON and displays them as components within a two-dimensional scene.
• Isolate-Based Parallelism - Offloads heavy computations to separate Dart isolates to prevent main thread blocking and frame drops.
• Controller Bridging - Bridges external gamepad library events into the main game loop to enable controller-based interaction.
• Game Development - Minimalist 2D game engine.
• Game Engine Development - Minimalist 2D game engine built on Flutter.
• Game Engines and Frameworks - Minimalist game engine built for Flutter.
