apecs is an Entity Component System (ECS) library for game development.
apecs aims to be
- Fast - Performance is competitive with Rust ECS libraries (see benchmark results below)
- Safe - Completely hides the dangers of the low-level machinery
- Concise - Game logic is expressed using a small number of powerful combinators
- Flexible - Easily add new modules or backends
- Cool
- documentation on hackage
- tutorial and other examples
- An Introduction to Developing Games in Haskell with Apecs
- mallRL - a grocery shopping roguelike
- An implementation of the Unity tutorial project using apecs
- SpaceMar
- Achtung die haskell
- (Your game here)
-
-
apecs-physics - 2D physics using the Chipmunk2D engine
-
apecs-gloss - Simple frontend for gloss-based rendering
-
apecs-stm - STM-based stores for easy concurrency
