The end-user (and/or packager of your software) determines how lines are rendered, depending on the capabilities of their system. libdoomwad libdoomwad is a library written in C++ to automate many tasks associated with using Doom .wad files. libdoor libdoor is a BBS door game programming library for Linux-based BBS's written in C. It is a fairly thin library. libgnet library for creating networked apps or games libjoy libjoy is a fully documented development library to access joysticks under Linux that features an easy interface. It also contains a very powerful console tool for scripting. You can access joysticks with 5 tiny lines of code. libksd an Open Source project lincensed under the LGPL, which aims to create a cross-platform game framework (written in C++) that would allow you write your game once and compile it for multiple operating systems and environments libMAGE A C++ library that provides basis for constructing distributed autonomic systems (running on grids and clusters), that are able to adapt to processor and memory load and node failures. libmaterial a texture manager for OpenGL libmng-py libmng-py is a Python wrapper around the libmng C library. It currently supports the most important parts of the library, and supports displaying and usage with the most popular toolkits (such as pygame and wxPython). libpuzzle The Puzzle library is designed to quickly find visually similar images (GIF, PNG, JPG), even if they have been resized, recompressed, recolored, or slightly modified. The library is lightweight yet very fast, configurable, and easy to use, and was designed with security in mind. LibTMCG LibTMCG is a general purpose C++ library for creating secure electronic card games. The most remarkable feature is the absence of a trusted third party (TTP), i.e. neither a central game server nor trusted hardware components are necessary. With the present library there is no need for an independent referee, because the applied protocols provide a basic level of confidentiality and fairness by itself. Consequently, the library is well-suited for peer-to-peer (P2P) environments where no TTP is available. libtour a generic tournament software written in C++. It expects rules, teams and schedule defined in the Scheme programming language.

It is similar to popular packages such as SOLID or RAPID, but more memory-friendly, and often faster Panda3D Panda3D is a 3D engine: a library of subroutines for 3D rendering and game development. The library is C++ with a set of Python bindings. Game development with Panda3D usually consists of writing a Python program that controls the the Panda3D library. Panda3D was developed by Disney for their massively multiplayer online game, Toontown. PhysicsFS a library to provide abstract access to various archives. It is intended for use in video games, and the design was somewhat inspired by Quake 3's file subsystem PLIB a portable, LGPL game development library poker-engine poker-eval is a C library to evaluate poker hands.
