Help

We have a Flame help channel on Fireslime's Discord, join it here.

We also have a FAQ, so please search for your question there first.

Goals

The goal of this project is to provide a complete set of out-of-the-way solutions for the common problems every game developed in Flutter will share.

Currently it provides you with:

• a game loop
• a component/object system
• bundles a physics engine (box2d)
• audio support
• effects and particles
• gesture and input support
• images, sprites and sprite sheets
• basic Rive support
• and a few other utilities to make development easier

You can use whichever ones you want, as they are all somewhat independent.

Support

The simplest way to show us your support is by giving the project a star.
