If you tell us why you don't want to use LibGDX (which is awesome, btw), we can get a better idea what you want. Edit: Did you download the Setup app? If you run that, it will generate a folder containing all the stuff you need.
Then you import the folder into the IDE as project with existing sources. Eclipse should find the four or five projects, depending on which platforms you selected. You will need Core, then Desktop to test it and finally Android / iOS.
Import all four. If you tell us what the problem is instead of the most useless problem description ever of "not working", we can, once again, actually try and help you.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
