**Entity component system (ECS)** and **data-oriented design** engine using object oriented for API.

Supernova is a **free** and open-source, cross-platform game engine for creating 2D and 3D projects with Lua or C++. It is lightweight and promotes the simplest way to use the best performance of a data-oriented design.
