Component/Entity System Frameworks

by Victor 16. March 2012 17:35

I've been scrounging the internet for a C++ implementation of en entity system or component framework and have come across many. Since there is no single source of frameworks, I thought I'd list what I've found here.

I should be thanking you for contributing such awesome code. I ran the Asteroids demo and it looks great. Good work!

I think you should know that I've tested that example game with the Monogame project and I can confirm it works flawlessly. This means that Artemis C# now can be used for developing to iOS, Android, Mac and Linux without extra job, thanks to Monogame!

That's great news for MonoTouch developers! Unfortunately for me, I'm trying to develop a game in C++ using cocos2d-x, but thanks for the info anyway!

There's also the Proton SDK for C++: http://www.rtsoft.com/wiki/doku.php?id=proton
Thanks for listing our work on here. I've been continuing the work of the approach of shared properties for some time now, though it's not completely ready for public display yet.
