LimeJS is an HTML5 JavaScript game framework for building 2D games that run in modern browsers and on iOS via Mobile Safari. It is built on Google Closure Library and supports Canvas 2D and WebGL rendering with a Python-based project scaffolding tool.

Use cases

• build html5 2d games in javascript
• create browser games that run on mobile safari
• make canvas-based games with a scene and sprite framework
• prototype casual games for web and ios
• use closure library for structured game code

When to choose

• you are maintaining or extending an existing LimeJS project
• you specifically want a Closure Library-based HTML5 game framework
• you target older browsers and Mobile Safari with 2D games

When to avoid

• you are starting a new game project - the framework has had no releases since 2018
• you need 3D rendering or modern tooling like npm/webpack integration
• you want an actively maintained engine with community support
