About MonoGame
MonoGame is an Open Source implementation of the Microsoft XNA 4 Framework. Our goal is to allow XNA developers on Xbox 360, Windows & Windows Phone to port their games to the iOS, Android, Mac OS X, Linux and Windows 8 Metro. PlayStation Mobile & Raspberry PI development are currently in progress.
Under the hood
These are the technologies we use under the hood, that make our API so cross-platform:
-
OpenTK is an advanced, low-level C# library that wraps OpenGL, OpenCL and OpenAL. It is suitable for games, scientific applications and any other project that requires 3d graphics, audio or compute functionality.
-
SharpDX is an open-source wrapper delivering the full DirectX API under the .NET platform, allowing the development of high performance game, 2D and 3D graphics rendering as well as realtime sound application.
-
Lidgren.Network is a networking library for the .NET Framework which uses a single udp socket to deliver a simple API for connecting a client to a server, reading and sending messages.
Please support the above OpenSource projects. MonoGame would not be where it is today without them.
