A game engine for programmers.

Let's build a game
Quick game of snake?

Nothing but Scala.

If you can write Scala, you can make games. Indigo is powered by Scala.js, and builds with SBT & Mill.

Easy to Type. Easy to Test.

Confident development using Scala's advanced type system, purely functional APIs, and a deterministic game loop.

Big Beautiful Pixels.

Indigo was designed for crisp, modern, beautiful pixel art. You can make non-pixel art games too!

Let's have some fun!

Indigo is a game engine for programmers. People who know how to code and want to make games by writing code. Just for the fun of it!

The engine has been designed specifically with programmers in mind. It focuses on developer productivity and ease of testing.

Indigo is written in Scala (powered by Scala.js), as are the amazing games you'll make. It's intended for the people who really like pure functions, but being Scala, allows you too flip back to a more procedural or object oriented style if that suits you or your game better.

 

Building games in Indigo is just like working any other Scala project, we've worked hard to keep the surprises to a minimum. You can even use all your favourite Scala.js compatible libraries and build tools, with extra support for SBT and Mill built in.

Indigo is free to use and the engine is open source. There are no limits on its use, or fees or royalties to pay, ever.

We can't wait to see what you're going to build!
