Redgreen Game Engine is a pseudo-game engine brand name and collection of reusable scripts associated with any interactive product developed by Studio RGB-Newt, and published by The Fishal Project, that contains code where the player controller, the user interface, and/or how objects in the world interact with each other, was written from scratch, and not just a reimplementation of premade templates, nor relying on heavy usage of a visual scripting language like Unreal Engine's blueprints.

Redgreen Game Engine was first "used" in the Atari Jaguar homebrew game F.F.: The Harpy & Dragon, written in C using the Raptor Engine API, where it retains the initial version number v1.2600, as a reference to the earlier Atari 2600 development effort of the project. It is semi-related to sister software projects by NeonWabbit that use "Redgreen" branding, such as Redgreen OS.

An actual game engine is also tentatively in the works under the title Redgreen Game Engine NEXT.

Like all applications in the Redgreen Software Suite, the mascot of Redgreen Game Engine is Newfolde.

Versions and platforms

Version 1

Version 1 of Redgreen Game Engine focuses on retro games targeting the original hardware of classic platforms, such as the games found in the Flye 'n' Frie: Classic Collection compilation. It uses the C, C++, and C# programming languages.

Build v1.2600 (C)

Build v1.2600 is the version number applied to all retro Redgreen Game Engine games that use the C programming language.

It is further split up into branches based on the console or platform that the game is being developed for, and the associated development environment, frameworks, or libraries that work in tandem with it.

Atari Jaguar
- JagStudio / Raptor Engine API
Sega Genesis / Mega Drive
- SGDK
Sega Saturn
- Jo-Engine
Sony PlayStation
- PSn00bSDK

Build v1.3000 (C / C++)

Build v1.3000 is the version number applied to all retro Redgreen Game Engine games that use both the C and the C++ programming language.

It is split up into branches, like Build v1.2600, and the incremental number comes from The 3000th Risk, one of the last games to use Build v1.2600.

Dreamcast
- KallistiOS
- Simulant Engine
Sony PlayStation 2
- ps2dev
- gsKit

Build v1.3600 (C#)

Build v1.3600 is the version number applied to all retro Redgreen Game Engine games that use the C# programming language.

It is split up into branches, like previous builds, and the incremental number comes from its usage in the game 60 Degrees, as it was developed for the Xbox 360.

Xbox 360
- XNA

Notable games

v1.2600

JagStudio / Raptor Engine API branch

F.F.: The Harpy & Dragon (unreleased Atari Jaguar puzzle game)
