Hello,
I am working on a game project in Java. It is a multiplayer game and in 2D. So far we have used Slick2D to render graphics, for map loading, for input and sound, etc.
My question is: Is there a better 2D library with those features for Java?
Thanks in advance
[java] Library for 2D games
Yeah, I know this one which is widely used by some game developers; LightWeight Java Game Library (http://lwjgl.org/)
Minecraft was built with it. Hope this helps! ;]

Better of course is subjective, but I second the notion of lwjgl I use it for both 2D and 3D games, its basically OpenGL used by java. I've been using it sometime now so If you got any questions feel free to ask me.
Slick is already built on top of LWJGL from what I remember. I don't like Slick but there aren't that many other 2D libraries. On the other hand, it's not a stretch to roll your own, especially for 2D.
