Pixel is the game library (API), which Open Eggbert is built on.
API
Pixel is set of Java interfaces and several classes.
To use the Pixel Game Library, you have to use a backend (or create a new one), which implements these interfaces.
Backends
Note: This table was taken from: https://issues.openeggbert.com
Now it is worked on the LibGDX backends.
Other backends are planned to be implemented in the future.
