Chibi Engine aims to offer a modern and simple approach to game development with web technologies. It takes advantage of TypeScript and ES6 features such as asynchronism, classes, and mixins for a flexible and maintainable programming methodology, inspired by popular game engines.

Its main objective is to pave the way for cross-engine game development. In this way it introduces an abstraction layer over existing engines to simplify the development process, gathering their common features under a unified API, while still allowing developers to leverage specific engine capabilities.

Additionally, Chibi Engine aims to integrate usual game creation features such as an entity component system, a physics engine and camera system.

Currently, the main target is PixiJS.
