This is a port of OpenBOR (Open Beat of Rage) to the Vita and Switch by Cpasjuste, based on Plombo's work and improved by rsn8887.

OpenBOR is the ultimate 2D gaming engine with over 10+ years of active development behind it. It is a continuation of the Beats Of Rage 2D game engine, which was originally created by the wonderful folks over at Senile Team.

With OpenBOR you can build anything from simple button mashers to elaborate projects rivaling the most lavish professional offerings.
