Interesting, I've always wanted to make a game but never found the time, now I'm torn between learning Lua or just sticking to the web and try to do something there instead.
Nitpick, there's a little typo: "Hello World exmaple for Mac"
- vvanders 10y agoI highly recommend giving Lua a try, it's a simple yet powerful little language(metatables, coroutines!) that embeds incredibly easily and has great performance. Way back on the PSP we use to run our whole game logic with Lua in a 400kb pre-allocated block. You only had 8mb of system ram since 24mb went to texture/audio and it really worked great. Coroutines are also a perfect fit for try-wait-try logic you get in a lot of AI routines.
