What are some less popular but well-made crates you'd like others to know about?
Tetra 2D game library. It's very easy to pick up and use. I'd like to bring more attention to it. https://tetra.seventeencups.net/

Is there any 2d only game library with high stuff. I think it would be light-er than bevy and won't crash my PC. Like pygame for python for an instance, supporting collision and stuff in Rust!!!!?
I've also used GGEZ and heard good things about Tetra.

Looking for an open-source project to join part-time
and speaking of game engines, tetra is a really nice one. it's kind of the opposite of bevy - it doesn't tell you how to architect your game, it just gives you some basic graphics/input/audio tools, and you're on your way.

OpenGL crates: gl vs glow vs glium
You also have Miniquad which is a very cool minimal graphics project. It has almost zero dependencies (only system ones), and compiles under 2 seconds to give you a window with OpenGL on all platforms including mobile very easily. It has a wrapper graphics API but it doesn't try to be modeled after OpenGL at all (after all it might support Metal in the future), so it's gonna be quite different doing your project in it, but it's still the same kind of low level graphics.

Please suggest high quality render library
Theirs also https://github.com/asny/three-d or https://github.com/not-fl3/miniquad. Or lower level ones like WGPU or GLOW.

Is there a way to use piston with wasm?
In that same rust game jam the second most used engine was macroquad, which was used by 3 games, two of which are playable in the browser. Macroquad is a cross-platform game library inspired by raylib. Macroquad is built on top of miniquad. I think macroquad is a bit more approachable than bevy since macroquad doesn't impose an ECS and tries to be minimal with its features so they are available in all of the platforms it targets.

Rust alternative for PyGame ?
(miniquad is a lower level lib https://github.com/not-fl3/miniquad - both miniquad and good-web-game is built on top of it)

Nice! Would love to see the same thing done with miniquad though.

Show HN: Life Simulation Written in Rust
Looks like it won't work out of the box, unfortunately, since {macro,mini}quad doesn't support a custom X11 parent window :-(
But I've opened an issue upstream to track functionality in the renderer that would allow this[1].

Minimal graphics crate for Rust
Hi, I am using macroquad. There is an issue with `window_reizable` property. In my archlinux, this property doesn't work when set to `false`. Then I saw here that it is used only for windows. If I am correct, could you let me know the reason for this? Thanks
