Description
MonoGame is a free and versatile framework widely used by game developers to design and build engaging games. Developed by Jose Antonio Farias and Bill Reiss, its first official release, version 2.5.1, launched in June 2012 and initially supported 2D game development. The framework is cross-platform, compatible with multiple operating systems, including Android, iOS, PlayStation, Linux, and more, and it leverages the Microsoft XNA 4 API for efficient game creation. Several popular games, such as Fez and Bastion, have been developed using MonoGame, demonstrating its powerful capabilities and industry relevance.
