Eva.js is a front-end 2D game engine built on an Entity-Component-System architecture with a PixiJS-powered rendering pipeline. It ships as a lightweight core plus modular plugins for rendering, animation, physics, sound, and interaction, targeting web and WeChat minigame projects.

Use cases

• build interactive 2D games in the browser
• create WeChat minigames
• make casual games like merge or card games for web
• add sprite and spine animations to a web page
• develop marketing mini-games for e-commerce apps
• prototype 2D games with an ECS engine in JavaScript

When to choose

• you need a lightweight, plugin-based 2D engine for web or minigame targets
• you want ECS architecture with out-of-box components for images, text, animation, and physics
• your project uses PixiJS-style WebGL/Canvas rendering with Spine, DragonBones, or Lottie assets

When to avoid

• you need 3D rendering or a full-featured native game engine
• you are building a non-game app where a general UI framework fits better
• you require console/PC native deployment
