I am new to Libgdx and I am not understanding about "states" and "screens". On my first contact with Libgdx I learned that the main class extends the "Game" class, then creating new classes implementing "Screen", but recently I followed a tutorial using GameStateManager and I think it much more practical and more comfortable using it. I was wondering if there are any differences between "states" and "screens" and if there are pros and cons.

  • GameState has nothing to do with a Stage, so no duplicate of that one. – MrStahlfelge Oct 28 '19 at 07:34

It is seperation of concerns. Read about MVC. Gamestate is part of the model, everything extending screen is part of the View.
