  • RG3D

    Discontinued 3D and 2D game engine written in Rust [Moved to: https://github.com/FyroxEngine/Fyrox]

  • rg3d has recently added web support.

  • bevy_webgl2

    WebGL2 renderer plugin for Bevy game engine

  • There was a rust game jam in September 2021 and some games are playable in the browser. In that game jam the most used game engine was the bevy game engine. But most of the games made in bevy were not made playable in the browser, the ones that were playable in the browser used a third-party bevy plugin called bevy_webgl2. However now bevy has been updated to version 0.6 that has new built in WASM support, so there seems to be no need for bevy_webgl2. Targeting WASM with bevy might mean that not all features of the engine are available, so you need to limit the game’s features used to the ones that are compatible with WASM.

  • howler.js

    Javascript audio library for the modern web.

  • Gate framework and Howler.js were used to make the game "Adventures of Pascal Penguin" which is playable here.

  • miniquad

    Cross platform rendering in Rust

  • In that same rust game jam the second most used engine was macroquad, which was used by 3 games, two of which are playable in the browser. Macroquad is a cross-platform game library inspired by raylib. Macroquad is built on top of miniquad. I think macroquad is a bit more approachable than bevy since macroquad doesn't impose an ECS and tries to be minimal with its features so they are available in all of the platforms it targets.
