Open Source Lua Software Development Software for Linux

Roact is a declarative view management library for Roblox that is similar to Facebook’s React. You can use Roact to create dynamic graphical user interfaces in Roblox games. Combine with Rodux for optimal syncing with game data when creating GUIs. Roact has many similarities with React: it exposes an API much like React’s, implements nearly identical semantics, and is made out of elements.

LOVE is a free 2D game engine which enables easy game creation in Lua.

Scrupp is a cross-platform 2D engine which uses SDL and OpenGL for visualization. It is controlled by external Lua scripts. The core supports various image, sound, music and font formats. The hard work is done by plugins written in Lua.

Reality Factory 2 is a next-generation game authoring suite. It combines a flexible, fully scripted game development environment powered by Python with the Ogre3D engine, and supports all major desktop operating systems.

The main purpose of the Moonlight Engine is to be a general 2D game engine geared towards tile-based games, and RPGs specifically. Support for online games is also planned.

This project aims at writing a threaded, object-oriented and scriptable game engine targetting the .NET platform, using a mixture of c# or managed c++ ports of famous c/c++ components such as OGRE, CEGUI, Newton, Lua, Python, Audiere, OpenAL, etc...

Pi64 is not an emulator, it just mimics the 80's classic 8bit computers with SDL based graphics and RtAudio based sound. The fullscreen editor for shell and the built-in program editor help you create your own programs and games. Programming language is LUA, but Pi64 is open for any library plugins written in your favourite language. Source was written in pure C, so should compile on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux without issues.

!!! Albion 2 has moved to http://albion2.org !!!

CoPP is an object-oriented framework for developing algorithms for robot path planning. One of of the design goals is to make it easy to make comparisons between various path planning algorithms.

ComputerCraft Chris Programs, is an open-source programs for a Minecraft mod: ComputerCraft.

Gojo is a 2D game engine that permits rapid game development, like FENIX, but uses Lua. The engine is written completely in C and uses SDL for graphics, sound, input, and networking. It comes with standard libraries for common game needs such as sprites.

Sourceforge is no longer being updated! While not specifically a MUD project, this project's basic concept has merged into another that can be found here: https://github.com/nicrohobak/Toolbox Along with an additional, related project of extreme interest: https://github.com/nicrohobak/AnsiGL ------------------------------------------------------------ HexMUD aims to be a fully-featured, game-system agnostic MUD server with a centrally focused feature of an added top-down hexagon-based map (dynamically generated and drawn in ANSI/ASCII art) giving a basic visual representation of your immediate surroundings in addition to traditional descriptions. Many (most?) MUD servers hard-code a specific game system, or a specific game setting within their code, but HexMUD strives to be as generic as possible in this area, allowing each separate administrator to easily build a custom code base while also gaining access to all of the core features HexMUD provides.

Jumper is a pathfinding library designed for grid-based games. It aims to be fast and lightweight. It features a wide range of search algorithms, built within a clean interface with chaining features which makes it very friendly and easy to use. Jumper is written in pure Lua. Thus, it is not framework-related and can be used in any project embedding Lua code.

Lienzo is a gtk-Canvas and Lua program to work in geometry. Unlike others like Cinderella, Cabri, DrGeo, etc... this one focuses in algorithms, not in static figures. the lua interface allows to work with programable objects.

Lixoo is a extensible, fast and small 2D point'n'click adventure game engine. It features the engine itself and an IDE that let you create full-featured games just by writing the essential code of the game.

Lunar aims to be a cross-platform engine geared towards developing two-dimensional video games. In addition to Lua-based scripting, planned features include support for interchangeable graphics, image and audio libraries, and a fully-featured editor.

The MAD Project is an attempt to create a powerful, flexible game engine, which is specifically designed for graphical adventure games.

NiL is a modular multi-purpose gaming engine including a multiplayer worm game a little like quake, except it's 2d and a little like worms except it's realtime.

OpenGDK is short for Open Game Development Kit. It's supposed to be a plug-in BASED (it's different from OGRE. OGRE is plug-in friendly), cross-platform, open source, general purpose (2D, 3D, client, server, editor), game development kit.

Universal, platform independet, scriptable, networking game engine with physics and sound support.

Robot Warfare is a real-time strategy game that gives the user an opportunity to manage and program a team of battling robots that autonomously face opposing teams in a network-enabled environment.

GUI IDE for developing games with the Stratagus engine.

The Gamebook Engine is the first free, cross-platform engine for writing gamebooks, such as the "Choose Your Own Adventure" series, or the "Lone Wolf" series. TGE can interpret scripts that use the "Hyena" gamebook format.

This project is created to permit the usage of a more-stable, easy to use MaNGOS object-oriented Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game Server (MMORPGS). It doesn't include unreviewed changes, so it may look more feature-less than MaNGOS.

This project explores the unproven concept of a "game browser", which attempts to bring what we have with current websites into the game world.
