Ruby 2D

Ruby2D is a simple and elegant 2D graphics library for the Ruby programming language, designed to make it easy to build games, simulations, and interactive applications. Built atop SDL2 and OpenGL, Ruby2D abstracts away the complexity of low-level graphics programming while exposing enough control for performance and flexibility. It supports images, text, sounds, and basic geometric shapes, making it ideal for learning graphics or quickly prototyping ideas with Ruby. The library is cross-platform and lightweight, staying true to Ruby’s principle of developer happiness.

Supports OpenGL and SDL2 for fast, hardware-accelerated rendering
Audio playback for WAV, MP3, and OGG formats
Built-in support for displaying text using TTF fonts
Window management and input handling for mouse and keyboard
