KTX

Welcome to the KTX wiki!

Getting started

If you are unfamiliar with the libGDX framework, check out the official libGDX wiki.

Each KTX module contains a README.md file with a list of features and numerous usage examples. If you are familiar with libGDX, going through the official documentation is a great way to learn KTX.

If you are a beginner, @Quillraven's simple KTX game tutorial goes through the basics of the framework and teaches you to create a very simple game with libGDX and KTX.

If you prefer videos, @Quillraven's YouTube series goes through majority of the KTX modules. These tutorials are a bit more advanced. You can find the complete game here.

Unsure if you want to use the framework? Check out the Choosing KTX article.
