Game API Overview

The Game class acts as the central hub and orchestrator of LITIENGINE. It exposes specialized singleton managers providing access to every engine subsystem.

  • Camera & Viewport

    Smooth target tracking, map clamping, zoom transitions, screen shake trauma, and coordinate conversion.

  • Physics & Collisions

    Spatial quadtrees, raycasting, velocity resolution, bounding box collisions, and force gravity.

  • 2D Graphics & Rendering

    Double-buffered AWT rendering pipeline, Y-sorted render layers, shapes, and TextRenderer.

  • Sound & Audio Engine

    2D positional spatial audio falloff, .ogg Vorbis streaming, sound effect caching, and music playlists.
