natlib v0.1.15

natlib

Natural Motion Library for Game Development

Motivation

I love the idea of having a lightweight, highly modular foundation for small games.

The development of natlib is guided by the following principles:

• Make a library, not a framework.
• Find the right balance between size, performance and readability.
• Prefer loose coupling to prevent the Banana Monkey Jungle problem.
