The technology
Built in-house. Open to everyone.
The engine, ECS, physics and platform layer under our games: written by us in modern C++, and published on GitHub.
Arcane Engine · C++23
Our in-house 2D game engine, built around modern rendering, jobs, hot reload and the Astra ECS.
Manifold2D Physics · C++23
Deterministic 2D rigid-body physics modeled on Box2D v3: fast collision, constraints and game-ready simulation.
Mosaic Foundation · C++23
The zero-dependency foundation under every Starworks product: platform detection, deterministic SIMD, and the job, log and assert seams.
Built in the open.
