EGSL is a small interpreter which can execute Lua scripts. It includes some functions for fast and easy game development. These are image manipulation functions, functions for 2D drawing, sound and music, input via mouse, keyboard, and joypad, and some helper functions. The engine is based on SDL, SDL_gfx, and SDL_mixer, and additionally on SDL_image on Haiku-OS.

Release Notes: It is now possible to change the font and colours of the editor. In this release, a simple and easy to use particle system was integrated. In addition to bitmap fonts, now SDL monofonts can be used. Text can be drawn in different colors (it was previously only possible with the built-in font). A few monofonts can be downloaded from the homepage. On Linux and Windows, this release uses Lua 5.2.
