HaxeFlixel is a free, open-source 2D game engine written in Haxe and built on top of OpenFL. It lets developers write one codebase and natively compile games to desktop, mobile, and web (HTML5) targets.
Use cases
- build a 2D game with one codebase for desktop, mobile, and web
- make a cross-platform indie game in Haxe
- create an HTML5 browser game
- port an ActionScript 3 Flixel game to modern platforms
- learn game development with a 2D engine and tutorials
- build a tilemap-based platformer with sprites and animation
When to choose
- you want a mature, free 2D engine with native multi-platform output
- you prefer Haxe and a large ecosystem of demos, addons, and documentation
- you're building 2D games like platformers, shooters, or puzzle games
- you want a Flixel-style engine descended from the original AS3 Flixel
When to avoid
- you need 3D rendering or a full 3D game engine
- you want to work in a mainstream language like C#, C++, or JavaScript directly
- you need engine-level features like built-in networking or advanced physics out of the box
