Gunslinger is a header-only C99 framework for building games and multimedia applications, bundling platform, graphics, and audio layers with all external dependencies included. It offers optional utilities such as immediate-mode rendering, GUI, physics, asset management, and reflection, with swappable core implementations.

Use cases

  • build a cross-platform game in pure C
  • create a multimedia or graphics demo without a build system
  • add immediate-mode GUI to a C application
  • prototype game physics and rendering quickly
  • embed a lightweight windowing and audio layer in an existing project

When to choose

  • you want a drag-and-drop, header-only C framework with no external compiling
  • you target Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, or HTML5
  • you prefer a sokol-style simple API with swappable backends

When to avoid

  • you need a full-featured engine with an editor and asset pipeline
  • your project requires iOS or UWP support today
  • you work primarily in C++ or another language
