Coming in 2026: What’s next for Axarion Engine


(This is not all)
GPU Acceleration

Introduced full GPU acceleration for dramatically improved rendering performance.

Optimized rendering pipeline for modern graphics cards.

Integrated OpenGL support for faster and smoother visuals.

2.5D Physics Support

Added Z-axis physics simulation for depth-aware environments.

Enhanced collision detection with Z-overlap handling.

Updated spatial grid to support three-dimensional space.

Gravity and forces can now be applied along the Z-axis.

Camera System Enhancements

Added options to disable visual effects for better performance.

New easing functions (elastic, linear) for smooth camera transitions.

Cameras can now save and load zones, improving scene management.

Animation Improvements

Added a global animation speed controller — slow down or speed up all animations at once.

Implemented color interpolation for smooth color transitions on objects.

Added chained animations, allowing multiple animations to run sequentially.

Scene System Upgrades

Introduced dynamic physics disabling for inactive objects to boost performance.

Added global scene effects (e.g., gravity changes, force applications).

Code Cleanup & Structure

Fully removed deprecated AXScript remnants from GameObject.

Improved documentation and reorganized core methods for better readability and maintainability.

Additional Optimizations

Enhanced collision detection system for higher precision and performance.

Added new utilities for managing object properties and effects.


Estimated Minimum Requirements

OS: Windows 10 / Linux / macOS

CPU: Dual-core 2.0 GHz (Intel i3 3rd gen or equivalent)

RAM: 4 GB

GPU: OpenGL 3.3 compatible (e.g., Intel HD 5000, older NVIDIA/AMD cards with OpenGL 3.3)

Storage: 10.5 MB free space

Other: Python 3.11+

💡 Note: Minimum specs can run standard 2D/2.5D games with a few lights and effects, but more complex scenes may slow down.


Estimated Recommended Requirements

OS: Windows 10/11 64-bit / Linux / macOS

CPU: Quad-core 3.0 GHz (Intel i5/i7, AMD Ryzen 5+)

RAM: 8 GB or more

GPU: Dedicated GPU with OpenGL 4.5+ (e.g., NVIDIA GTX 1050/1660 or RTX 3060, AMD RX 560/6600)

Storage: 10.5 MB free space

Other: Python 3.11+, SSD recommended

💡 Note: Recommended specs will fully utilize GPU acceleration, dynamic lighting/shadows, 2.5D effects, and light 3D scenes smoothly.

Next up

The Axarion Engine repository has been temporarily removed from GitHub as we prepare to launch a new and updated version. The new repository will be available within the next few days. (the website is down too)

Our pals at @serenityforge have released Doki Doki Literature Club on iOS and Android!

Support them by picking up DDLC avatar frames, backgrounds, and sticker packs in the Game Jolt Shop or on their profile!

The Game Awards are tonight, but we're more interested in learning what YOUR game of the year is.

Tell us by completing the quest "What's YOUR Game of the Year?"!

Happy Joltidays! A new quest has entered your quest log. Accept the quest and follow @MarcDWyz to open today's slot on the calendar.

So

i may or may not make an full art of some person or i may just leave this like that-

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

"Our work is never over" they said.

Terraria

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?
