This is a Nintendo Switch Homebrew and Xbox UWP backend for the [https://libgdx.com/ LibGDX] game framework. It uses the [https://github.com/TheLogicMaster/clearwing-vm Clearwing VM] project to transpile Java to C++ along with custom native bindings for LibGDX. It supports Nintendo Switch Homebrew builds using LibNX, and Xbox/Windows Store with UWP. See the SwitchGDX [https://discord.com/channels/348229412858101762/965372515285352468 thread] on the LibGDX Discord server for support. ==Features== *Full GDX Reflection support. *GDX Controllers support for all Switch controller layouts. *GDX Preferences for persistent data. *Desktop builds for debugging with emulated controller inputs. *Xbox UWP builds. *Supported extensions: FreeType, Controllers, and Box2D. ==User guide== ===Compatibility=== The majority of LibGDX is fully supported. A few features such as GL30 and audio recording are currently unsupported. ===JVM Languages=== Since Clearwing takes Bytecode as an input, it can support any JVM language. The main limitation would be the Clearwing runtime library, which is limited and may not support all required functionality, though this can typically be easily added as needed. Java and Kotlin have been tested and work. ===Libraries=== Pure Java libraries should work without any extra work, assuming they don't use unsupported runtime library features or JNI. Libraries compiled with a JDK version greater than 8 could also pose an issue. If a library uses JNI, custom native bindings could be provided and things should just work, the shared library loading API has no effect. See Libraries for a list of tested libraries. ===Ports=== These are some LibGDX games that have been ported using SwitchGDX. *[[Shattered Pixel Dungeon Switch|Shattered Pixel Dungeon]] *[[Pixel Wheels Switch|Pixel Wheels]] *[[BombermanGDX Switch|Bomberman GDX]] *[[Pepper and Carrot Switch|Pepper and Carrot Running Game]] *[[TriPeaks Switch|TriPeaks]] *[[A Square Astray Switch|A Square Astray]] *[[Unlucky Switch|Unlucky]] *[[Klooni 1010 Switch|Klooni 1010]] *[[Jewel Thief Switch|Jewel Thief]] *[[nO mooRe Switch|nO mooRe]] ===Links=== *[https://github.com/TheLogicMaster/switch-gdx Source code and documentation] *[https://github.com/TheLogicMaster/clearwing-vm Java to C++ transpiler] *[https://github.com/TheLogicMaster/switch-gdx/blob/master/TESTS.md LibGDX compatibility] ==Screenshots== https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/switchgdxnx3.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/switchgdxnx4.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/switchgdxnx5.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/switchgdxnx6.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/switchgdxnx7.png https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/switchgdxnx8.png '''LibGDX library [https://hyperlap2d.rednblack.games/ HyperLap2D's] example project'''<br> {| style="width: 80%; margin-left:0em;" | https://dlhb.gamebrew.org/switchhomebrews/switchgdxnx2.png |} ==Changelog== '''v0.2''' * Multi-controller input, single-threaded Timer, Sound fixes.
