Bonfire is a **2D game engine for Flutter** that helps you create RPG-style games — and similar genres — in an easy, objective and fast way. It is built on top of [Flame](https://flame-engine.org/), so every Flame resource and class remains available to use alongside Bonfire.

## What is Bonfire

Bonfire was created with the purpose of letting you create Flutter games in an easy, objective and fast way!

This tool was built over [Flame](https://flame-engine.org/) and all its resources and classes are available to be used along with Bonfire. It is recommended to familiarize yourself with Flame before you start doing something with Bonfire.
