Gondwana Game Engine Development (master) - 2.6.1
Gondwana is a cross-platform 2.5D game and rendering engine written in C#/.NET 8. It provides fine-grained control over rendering, timing, and scene composition, with built-in support for parallax, z-ordering, pixel overhang, collision detection, and particle effects. Gondwana targets desktop and web platforms using SkiaSharp for graphics and pluggable audio backends for desktop and browser targets.

override void OnSceneBound ()
 Called after the current scene has been bound to the Windows Forms render surface host.
virtual void OnConfigurePlatform ()
 Provides a hook for configuring platform-specific settings during initialization.
virtual void OnKeyboardAdapterInitialized ()
