What's Good

zlib OR Unlicense. C/C++ native-first with Emscripten web path. Full framework (not just a renderer): windowing, input, audio, sprites. Permissive enough to ship without OSI drama.

The Catch

C/C++ native-first + Emscripten — not Phaser/KAPLAY JS engines. Full framework — not Pixi/Babylon/PlayCanvas renderer-or-editor slots alone. Distinct from Phaser, KAPLAY, Pixi, Babylon, and PlayCanvas.

Verdict

Permissive C/C++ game framework. Native-first; web via Emscripten.
