I recently learned that the popular game Balatro was made in LÖVE. I had never heard of it until then. But looks interesting. https://love2d.org https://love2d

- sigseg1v 2y agoI had similar fun with Don't Starve when I opened up some files in the game directory and noticed they were all Lua, all using an ECS system, and easily extensible. Having never used Lua before, I made a rudimentary multiplayer server for it by opening a socket and sending game events to another instance of the game on another machine. I planned to actually start making it into a multiplayer mod but then they announced Don't Starve Together and I scrapped my implementation for obvious reasons.
