Pixel VS DiligentEngine

All tutorials I could find are either outdated or skip over installation, and the https://github.com/faiface/pixel/wiki/Building-Pixel-on-Windows github page is not detailed at all.

Hi! I'm making a game using faiface/pixel. It's a very cool lib, but I can't find any examples for creating a menu button (as in the screenshot). I have read all the documentation and haven't found an answer to the questions below:

From what I've seen, Ebitengine seems to be the most popular choice among hobby and professional game devs, but there are other frameworks as well like oakmound/oak and faiface/pixel that continue to be maintained on Github to this day.

faiface/pixel: A hand-crafted 2D game library in Go

I don't see why it can't be used in video game development in fact, there are already a few games made in go like Bear's Restaurant though most of them seem to be 2D games That is also a few game engines/frameworks/library made in go like G3N, Ebiten, pixel and go-gl I have seen a few Youtube Videos where people make games in go like Gaming in Go Making an MMO I think what is Missing is gaming engines with a GUI like unity, unreal and Godot but nothing stopping someone from making one other than the massive time/money investment it takes

For learning Go, A Tour of Go, and tutorials from libraries I used (Pixel and Beep), as well as a lot of Googleing.

Btw, for game engines/libraries in Go, feel free to check out Ebiten, or my Pixel.

I have played around with the Python TCOD tutorial before this, but the library I'm using (Pixel) is very different. I think it's more similar to PyGame.

Neither Apple nor Microsoft want any usable multiplatform graphics API. For this reason, none of them delivers such a thing.

If you want a multiplatform graphics API, you should use a library which implements such API on top of these native OS-specific APIs.

I have good experience with that one: http://diligentgraphics.com/diligent-engine/ I’ve used it couple times on Windows with D3D12 backend, and on Linux with GLES 3.1 backend.

Diligent Engine: They say their engine is the successor of bgfx, but I'm not rly into that topic.

Diligent Engine. A Modern Cross-Platform Low-Level 3D Graphics Library and Rendering Framework Tweet.

Read other people's code (I recommend modern small to medium sized github projects, because large ones can be overwhelming) or else you will forever stay in your bubble of how things are done. For example, I had learned a thing or two by using (and code browsing) diligent engine's source.

Diligent Engine

I'm not speaking out of my ass, either, I have very actively followed low-level development being done towards open-source engines such as Diligent and Wicked. I personally am a contributor to the latter engine, as well. It is baffling to me that independent developers don't support this platform.
