mruby 3.2.0
Note that Ruby2D aims to run on both ruby and mruby:
> Use a subset of Ruby that works everywhere. Ruby 2D applications are, of course, written in Ruby. Some users may choose to harness the full power of the language, standard library, and ecosystem of gems by writing interpreted apps targeting the standard implementation, MRI. Others may want to target the web via WebAssembly, mobile devices, or build native desktop applications, all which make use of a different Ruby implementation called mruby. Ruby 2D aims to support all of these use cases, even with the same app codebase. Your contribution must support a subset of Ruby that is compatible with and behaves similarly across MRI/CRuby and mruby.

Simple game tutorials in Ruby using Ruby2D
OK, got it working, there's a pull request up with the change: https://github.com/ruby2d/ruby2d/pull/260 so it should be in a release in the near future hopefully :)

if you want to explore gosu, minigl looks interesting

ruby2d vs pygame
I didn't use these frameworks but if you want to go with Ruby, I would recommend Gosu, which is more active than Ruby2D (they have a pretty active Discord server). Since it's a bit low-level, you could also use my gem MiniGL which builds on Gosu to make a lot of things easier, and I also actively maintain.

Puzzle game made in 1 week
I recently decided to recreate a puzzle game that I developed all the way back in 2012, with C++, but this time with Ruby and my library MiniGL. I was curious to see how quickly I could do it and, having all of the graphics and sound assets already done, it only took a week (working between 2 and 3 hours per day). I didn't reuse any of the original code, and even made some small improvements.

Ruby is good for the soul. Have fun with it. That's the most important thing. Build a game. Here's one I'm working on (source code + playable link in the comments).
Don't forget MiniGL :)
- Meu jogo de plataforma estará disponÃvel em breve na Steam!

My solo-developed, Ruby powered, platformer game Super Bombinhas will be available soon on Steam!
By the way, it's worth mentioning that there's a .deb for Debian-based distros that you can get for free on https://victords.itch.io/super-bombinhas. Also, if you're willing to do a bit more work, you should also be able to run it on Mac - you'd just have to install Ruby and the Gosu and MiniGL gems, then clone the game's repo and follow the Readme.

Started working on an isometric RPG project
Hi! I've wanted to create an RPG inspired by the first Paper Mario games for a long time, but having to deal with 3D graphics was always a blocker for me... So I finally managed to create an isometric 3D "engine" using only 2D libraries (Gosu and MiniGL) and I'm happy with the results so far.

Neither, I use Gosu and my own little library, MiniGL.
