About
The Citrus Engine is a Flash sidescrolling platform game engine built on the power of ActionScript 3.0 and Box2D. The Citrus Engine was built to allow designers and developers to quickly and easily create platform games (also called side-scrollers) like Super Mario Brothers. Teams can use the Citrus Engine for advergaming, marketing and casual games for game portals.The Citrus Engine was built in ActionScript 3.0, so games that are created with it must also be written in ActionScript 3.0. We have worked very hard at creating a simple, easy-to-use API that will take all the complication out of game development and leave the fun stuff for you!
The Citrus Engine levels can be created with our graphics-based level building tool called the Level Architect. Creating and tweaking your levels to perfection is as easy as drag-and-drop! You can also bring your custom-made game objects into the Level Architect.
