Very interesting. It reminds me of Love2D, a 2d game engine for Lua that also uses SDL2 as a backend.

- springogeek 7y agoDOME is partially inspired by Love2D, although I've tried to approach things a bit differently. Love2D seems to expose a lot of SDL's underlying functions and concepts, whereas DOME aims to abstract a lot of that away.
- danbolt 7y agoIf you find yourself porting to another platform that’s less PC (eg: smartphone, game console) that’ll serve you well. Wren has some really interesting design choices so I feel like it’s a good fit for performant embedding.
- springogeek 7y agoIt'll be a while, but I think the next step is a move towards web. I've built it to run in browsers before, but that was a while ago. Because DOME sits on top of SDL2, porting to other platforms shouldn't be too difficult in the future. Lofty goals!
