    AndEngine

    AndEngine

    Free Android 2D OpenGL Game Engine

    AndEngine is a Java-based, open-source 2D game engine for Android, designed to make mobile game development easier by wrapping OpenGL (GLES) under a higher-level API. It abstracts much of the complexity of directly using OpenGL, letting developers more quickly build games with sprites, tilemaps, physics (via extensions), animations, and input handling, all within the Android ecosystem. Because it's tailored for Android, AndEngine integrates with typical Android project structure and lifecycle, although historically it was more aligned with Eclipse — meaning some adaptation might be needed for modern Android Studio projects. It enjoys a substantial community, many forks and extensions (for physics, tilemaps, multiplayer, live wallpapers, etc.), which increases its versatility — from simple casual games to more feature-rich 2D titles.

    NullSAF

    A game engine in java for 2D strategy games

    NullSAF is a game engine written in Java with features as creating terrain maps and navigation meshes from bitmaps, defining different type of units, sensors, guns, missiles, AI for movement, pathfinding and targetting and simulation of bullets and animated explosions. I learned a lot from it and used it to test new concepts in AI and wargaming. Maybe it can inspire you or you want to really improve it to build your own wargame or serious game. Think of it as Robocode, but then with a far more serious implementation of CGFs and AI.
