Angry Pixel Engine

Angry Pixel Engine is an open-source 2D game engine developed in TypeScript. It is designed to simplify game development using a modern Entity-Component-System (ECS) architecture, offering a flexible and highly modular structure.

Key Features

  • Entity-Component-System architecture.
  • Fully written in TypeScript, compatible with both JavaScript and TypeScript projects without requiring additional type packages.
  • Three-phase game loop: decoupled logic, physics, and rendering.
  • 19 built-in components covering physics, rendering, and interaction.
  • Extensible system: supports custom components and systems.
  • Includes a math library (vectors, rectangles, and common utilities).
  • Compatible with keyboard, mouse, gamepads, and touch screens.
  • Integrated scene management and asset handling.

Who is it for?

Angry Pixel Engine is ideal for:

  • Indie developers and small studios seeking a flexible 2D engine.
  • Programmers who value a clear and extensible ECS architecture.
  • Educational projects or rapid prototyping.
  • Browser-based game development, as it is very easy to integrate with HTTP and WebSocket calls.

Project Status

The engine is currently under active development and is stable for production use.

License

Angry Pixel Engine is open-source and distributed under the MIT license, allowing free use in both commercial and personal projects.
