If anybody is interested in using or hacking on it, or asking questions, just write here
In short, you can write a game using a very simple and flat API, with no other dependency. The game gets compiled to a "cartridge' that can be run on the runtime (omicron.jar) (or you can bundle the runtime and release as a standalone game).
It features:
- runs on all platforms, including raspbian (thanks to clicky)
- generalized gamepad configuration
- old school api and simple resource management
- sandboxed cartridge execution
- fixed resolution (??)
To run just give java -jar omicron.jar <game>.omicron
You can find everything here:

NB. to run omicron on RPi you probably have to adjust the opengl driver and openal support with the following commands:
