Description:
rubato 1.0.0
rubato is a modern 2D engine for game developement in python built in Cython using SDL2. It is aimed to aid in rapid prototyping and educational development of games as a stepping stone towards AAA tools such as Unity. rubato is more robust than its competitors, with a more intuitive syntax, high customizability, and zippy performance.
Here are some features we're especially proud of:
Powerful Rigidbody Physics
Event Subscription/Listener System
Spritesheets and Animations
Particle Systems
Tiled / Tilemap Support
Multichannel Sound System
Antialiasing + Anisotropic Filtering
Collision Optimization with Quadtrees
Texture-based Hardware Acceleration
User Interface Elements
And more!
1.0 is the latest API-stable release as of Dec. 31 2022, and we plan to maintain backwards compatibility in future releases. Please note that the alpha versions (0.x.x) are now deprecated and it is strongly recommended to update in order to get the latest features and optimizations.
Wondering about the name? rubato is a music term that indicates a phrase that should be performed expressively and freely. We aim to harness that same freedom, bringing a fresh, modern take on game developement in python to a variety of users regardless of their coding background.
Getting Started
