Game Engines in Java
« on: March 06, 2013, 03:07:40 pm »
Hey, are there any good/easy to use Java game engines out there other than JMonkey out there?

I don't want to use JMonkey because it requires jdk 6, and I have jdk 7, and I don't want to downgrade...

Well you can use both. I have 6 and 7 installed.
For 2D I use Slick2D. Besided JMonkey I don't know any other good 3D engines. You should use LWJGL, which is what Slick and JME are based on.

Don't forget Greenfoot.

Due to dissatisfaction, I will be inactive on Omnimaga until further notice. (?? THP hasn't been much success and there's also the CE. I might possibly be here for a while.)
If you want to implore me to come back, or otherwise contact me, I can be found on GitHub (bluebear94), Twitter (@melranosF_), Reddit (/u/Fluffy8x), or e-mail (if you know my address). As a last resort, send me a PM on Cemetech (bluebear94) or join Touhou Prono (don't be fooled by the name). I've also enabled notifications for PMs on Omnimaga, but I don't advise using that since I might be banned.

Yeah Greenfoot can be kinda nice sometimes. Builderboy actually uses it for Java games. I think there can be some lag though.
