Dwarf2D is an easy to use set of utilites wrapped around LWJGL (Lightweight Java Game Library), OpenGL (Open Graphics Library) and OpenAL (Open Audio Library) design to make Java 2D game development easier and ultimately better for all, Dwarf2D is totally free, and can be used in anything from friendly, open-source hobby projects, to evil, closed-source commercial ones. With a Slick design you are certain to LÖVE it!
Dwarf2D is currently being used in game development, but it is still considered an experimental framework based on an experimental concept. Please use in your projects at your own risk.
Watch/star to follow along with progress!

The Wiki contains all of the information you'll need to write a Dwarf2D game. You can contribute to the Wiki directly here on GitHub!
We also provide Javadocs online (This may be your best bet).
- LWJGL 2.9.1 or newer - You can download this from their website.
- Java (the latest would be best) - You can also download this from their website.
