The Grid SDK - A 2D game engine built on LÖVE

The Grid engine is a 2D game engine built on LÖVE. It's inspired by Source, and subsequently, QuakeWorld. It's a small, but powerful engine that provides a significant amount of subsystems to you that you would otherwise need to write by hand for your projects or game jams.
