What graphics engine should I use?
I'm still learning Java, so I do not want to make 3D stuff yet.

Just use the built in 2D library the Java offers. They are pretty good, I built a 3D Renderer from scratch using them...

What is it called? :/
I'm going to learn as I go, but I want to make a game that works on my site without download, and a downloadable one, both being portable and Java seems the best language to use.

If you want to learn Java, then I recommend using the Java website:
htt
p://
docs.oracle.c
om/java
se/tuto
rial/ja
va/
If you want to learn Java 2D, or Java 2D Game programming:
htt
p://
zetco
de.c
om/
That website also has other tutorials for other languages. |

If you want a 3d one premade, try out LWJGL.

LWJGL is nice, but if you are only doing simple stuff the inbuilt one is good, too.

Just learn how to use the build-in graphics API. If you want to use OpenGL or (not suggesting that you're interested in 3D, but most non-trivial 2D stuff is made with OpenGL or DirectX too (Or Flash)) then you might as well use C++, or C# with DirectX because using OpenGL in Java is dodgy at best. |
