About

  • Cocos2d-x is an open-source mobile 2D game framework, released under MIT License. It is a C++ version of cocos2d-iphone project. Our focus for cocos2d-x development is around making cocos2d cross platforms. On top of the framework provided by cocos2d-x, mobile games can be written in C++ or Lua, using API that is COMPLETELY COMPATIBLE with that of cocos2d-iphone. Cocos2d-x project can easily be built and run on iOS, Android, Samsung Bada, BlackBerry Table OS and more. Cocos2d-x also supports Windows and Linux, therefore we can debug source code easily and write editors on desktop operating systems.
  • What the "x" in cocos2d-x means:
    • Sometimes, we write the .cpp file extension as .cxx. The "x" signifies that the project is written by C++, and offer C++ APIs.
    • The "x" also means CROSS. The goal of this open-source project is to allow its users to create cross-platform code. Currently supported platforms are the iPhone, Android, and win32 platforms, but more platforms can be made available upon request. Details on how to do this are at the bottom of this page.

We aspire to create a world-class open source project.
