A refreshingly simple data-driven game engine built in Rust

Save to My finds to follow releases and star growth. Saved in this browser.

About the project

Bevy is an open-source data-driven game engine written in Rust, built on the Entity Component System paradigm with 2D and 3D support. It is in early development, with breaking API changes roughly every 3 months.

Useful for
  • Build a 2D game in Rust by running the breakout example via cargo run --example breakout
  • Create a windowed app with Bevy by adding DefaultPlugins
  • Study the engine's examples to learn the ECS approach

2.4 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 21, 2026, 21:58 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

04080August 5, 2026November 2, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-21 (UTC), 00:08–21:57: 49163 → 49188 stars (+25). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +27 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 59% of the previous week and a half.
  • Hacker News: “Bevy 0.20” — 256 points, 12 days ago.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @ErikHellman (638 followers).

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
