Internally it looks like itвЂ™s doing much the same as libGDXвЂ™s SpriteBatch class, but with the performance benefit of being written in C.В It provides back ends for OpenGL 1, 2, 3, 4, ES1, ES2 and ES3 - the results above are for ES2 (via ANGLE on the Lumia). SDL_gpu is an add-on library for libSDL that provides a high performance 2D OpenGLВ rendering engine that makes much more efficient use of the GPU hardware than the standard libSDL rendering APIs. TheВ вЂњtweakвЂќ libSDL version incorporated a hack to the OpenGLES2 renderer on iOS to avoid rebinding the texture if it hadnвЂ™t changed from the previous call e.g.: if you were drawing your sprites ordered by textureВ or all from the same texture atlas. libGDX, MonoGame, Love and SDL+GPU take a different approach and so score much higher on this synthetic benchmark as a result, but both approaches have their advantages. You can find a lot more Bunnymark scores here.Д¬ocos2DX suffers for having to maintain a scene graph of thousands of nodes. The results are the approximate number of bunnies that each engine can animate at 60fps. I implemented my own version of Bunnymark and ran it on various devices. The results forВ 10000 iterations averaged over five runs from a device power-on are below: I ran the well known benchmarks from here on an iPhone 6s using the most up to date version of each languageвЂ™s compiler. Similarly, libGDX_min has a configuration change applied to allow the compiler to strip as many classes as possible from the final build. Cocos2DX_min has some extra configuration applied to strip the engine down as much as possible, for example removing the physics integration and support for JPEG images. TheyвЂ™re enough to get a blank screen up on an iOS device and nothing more. This table shows the iOS minimum build size of various engines, in terms of the size of an App Store IPA archive, to give an idea of the engine size overhead in your apps:ДЄll the above apps are built for ARM7+ARM64 with the latest available version of the respective engine as of January 2016, have all the respective engineвЂ™s possible size and/or stripping optimisations applied, and further have all extraneous images and assets removed. As part of my continued game engine navel-gazing, IвЂ™ve been doing a little benchmarking and I thought IвЂ™d post the results here for posterity.
