Aura

Aura is a work-in-progress TypeScript/WebGL general-purpose game engine, designed to enable the swift implementation of both 2D and 3D browser games and providing a large base of built-in utility.

Built on the Entity-Component-System architecture and operating on the concept of distinct game States, Aura aims to enable a compartmentalised approach to game creation, supporting developments of varying complexity.

Goals:

• Zero (or close to) dependencies
• Simplistic and easy-to-approach API and project structure
• Flexible rendering engine, with support for custom Shaders and Components
• Large base of built-in utility, serving many use-cases out of the box
• Support for both 2D and 3D game creation
• Multiple input/control schemes (Keyboard/Mouse, Gamepad, Touch)
• Approachable documentation
• Comprehensive testing
• Potentially: Desktop and Mobile builds
