Bevy is the most popular Rust game engine. Everything is built around its entity component system, so game logic is written as systems that query components, and the engine is modular enough to swap out rendering or audio. It has no finished visual editor yet and its API still changes between releases, so expect some migration work when upgrading. Fyrox, formerly rg3d, is the main alternative and ships with a scene editor for 2D and 3D.

If you prefer an established editor, gdext provides Rust bindings for Godot 4, while gdnative covers the older Godot 3. For small 2D games, ggez offers a simple LÖVE-like API, and Piston is an older modular collection of crates. rust-sdl2 binds SDL2 for windowing, input and audio, and Kiss3d draws simple 3D scenes with little setup.

Standalone ECS crates such as specs and legion predate Bevy and are less active today, but they are still useful to study or embed in a custom engine. The category also includes Minecraft-compatible servers written from scratch, Pumpkin and FerrumC, which show how Rust handles large numbers of concurrent players. Finished games built in Rust are listed in their own Games category.
