Legend Engine is a feature-packed, cross-platform game engine to create 2D and 3D games from a unified interface. It provides a comprehensive set of common tools, so that users can focus on making games without having to reinvent the wheel. Games can be exported with one click to a number of platforms, including the major desktop platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows), mobile platforms (Android, iOS), as well as Web-based platforms and consoles.
Legend is completely free and open source under the very permissive MIT license. No strings attached, no royalties, nothing. The users' games are theirs, down to the last line of engine code. Legend's development is fully independent and community-driven, empowering users to help shape their engine to match their expectations.
Official binaries for the Legend editor and the export templates can be found on the Legend website.
See the official docs for compilation instructions for every supported platform.
Legend is not only an engine but an ever-growing community of users and engine developers. The main community channels are listed on the homepage.
