libGDX is a cross-platform Java game development framework based on OpenGL (ES), designed for Windows, Linux, macOS, Android, web browsers, and iOS. It provides a robust and well-established environment for rapid prototyping and iterative development. Unlike other frameworks, libGDX does not impose a specific design or coding style, allowing you the freedom to create games according to your preferences.

libGDX is released under the Apache 2.0 License, offering unrestricted usage in both commercial and non-commercial projects. While not mandatory, we appreciate any credit given to libGDX when you release a game or app using it. Check out our showcase for a selection of popular libGDX-powered games. With libGDX, you gain access to a comprehensive set of tools and features to develop multi-platform 2D and 3D games using Java.

Moreover, libGDX boasts a vibrant third-party ecosystem, with numerous tools and libraries that streamline development tasks. Explore the awesome-libgdx repository for a curated list of libGDX-centered libraries, serving as an excellent starting point for newcomers in the libGDX community.

Thanks to Gradle, you can easily set up libGDX without the need to download the framework itself. Your favorite build tool can handle everything for you. Additionally, we offer a convenient setup tool that automates project creation and downloads all the necessary components.
