Shiro Games<\/a>, the developers behind such games as Evoland, Northgard and Darksburg, just posted a blog post<\/a> on the technology they use to develop their game.<\/p>\n

The primary parts of the development stack include:<\/p>\n

The Haxe Language<\/a><\/h3>\n

Haxe is a cross platform open source programming language with a high-level strictly typed language capable of being compatible to multiple languages or runtimes. <\/p>\n

Heaps<\/a><\/h3>\n

A cross platform open source high performance 2D and 3D game engine.  We did a three part tutorial series, getting started<\/a>, 2D graphics<\/a> and animation and sprite sheets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

HaxeLink<\/a><\/h3>\n

A high performance open source game focused virtual machine for Haxe.<\/p>\n

HIDE<\/a><\/h3>\n

The confusingly named Haxe IDE is essentially a full blown level editor capable of creating 2D and 3D games.<\/p>\n

CastleDB<\/a><\/h3>\n

A game focused game engine with a built in tilemap editor.  You can learn more about the CastleDB here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Combined together you get a complete, battletested and production ready game engine with several high quality shipped titles under it\u2019s belt.  You can learn more about the entire technology stack in the video<\/a> below.<\/p>\n
