Overlap2D is a 2D level and UI editor with an engine agnostic philosophy for game development. Made to separate coding from content, it enables developer to create rich content using images, animations, particle effects, light system, physics and complex grouped items.
Note
This is a RC candidate that does not yet output a data file that is readable by latest official runtime. We will push next runtime very soon.
Getting Started
Runtime
Overlap2D currently supports libGDX based runtime which will easily render your content on Android, iOS and desktop, while letting you code on Java. It is of course open source: overlap2d-libgdx-runtime
Runtime is also in maven central, current version being: com.underwaterapps.overlap2druntime:overlap2d-runtime-libgdx:0.1.1-SNAPSHOT
Runtimes for other platforms are coming soon and everyone is welcome to contribute!
