beta just yet as we expect the engine to be unstable until we have more testing done. Throughout the last two years the core of the engine has seen a lot of improvements and refactoring to bring it to the next level in terms of maintainability, reliability, and performance.

The engine should be able to render and simulate 200+ lightweight game objects -- frame-animated sprites with simple collision, no fancy physics or shaders. Which game engine should I use to maximize ease of learning and compatibility, and manage hundreds of simple objects on-screen? Reminder: for iOS, that means WebGL 1.0
