olcPixelGameEngine VS MonoGame

I'm using SFML to develop my game engine (Though I might switch to olcPixelGameEngine at some point in the future).

If you want something simple (single file to drop in a project) with a nice easy C++ API for 2D graphics there is OneLoneCoder's Pixel Game Engine.

The PixelGameEngine from OneLoneCoder would probably fit here.

As always, I recommend https://github.com/OneLoneCoder/olcPixelGameEngine :) It's just one header, so you just include it in your project and you're good to go.

And if you want to try making a small game with rudamentary graphics, but not go full OpenGL/DirectX, take a look at OLC pixel game engine. It's a one header graphics library that will allow you to draw simple shapes, text, etc. perfect for prototyping or making very simple games. Eventually you'll want to try making Pong to take your training to the next level, so this will be perfect for that.

For a beginner I’d recommend the One Lone Coder Pixel Game Engine olcPixelGameEngine It is a single header library, works in Windows, Mac and Linux. The author also has some great game programming videos on his YouTube channel OLC YouTube

The source code is public and under the license of the olcPixelGameEngine found at: https://github.com/OneLoneCoder/olcPixelGameEngine

All you need is here. Just put the .h file in your project and you're done.

To highlight this shift, we are introducing a new website which is now fully automated with Github. The paint is still fresh, but we hope to expand it with more information about the MonoGame Foundation, like how it operates, and how to join it or contribute.

Yes, it is possible, but you need to use a game framework not a game engine.

Example of a game framework: http://www.monogame.net.

Monogame, though it doesn't do much hand-holding: https://github.com/MonoGame/MonoGame

Webassembly support is spotty, though in progress AFAICT.

Used by a few 2D games like Stsrdew Valley and Celeste.

Some that I am aware of and that support at least Windows and Android are (Monogame)[https://www.monogame.net/], (Cocos2D)[https://www.cocos.com/en/cocos2d-x], (LÖVE)[https://love2d.org/]. But there are likely many more. Even more basic ones which are just another abstraction layer on top of SDL (like (Oxygine)[https://oxygine.org/]).
