I’m in! I’m going to try and make a web-playable game again, but this time I’m going to use haxe with the luxe engine.

I’m going to try and use it for a 3D game, which is not really what luxe is intended for. (it’s great for 2d games though). I just like doing 3d stuff and I don’t mind tinkering with engine stuff, so I’m going to give it a shot unless I have a really good idea for a 2d game. Last night I put together a warmup game (the world’s crappiest breakout clone) which helped me anticipate a lot of the issues I might run into.

My basecode and the warmup game is in my ld48 code dump (https://code.google.com/p/ld48jovoc/) in the basecodehx and warmup subdirs. I would not recommend them, they are a big mess as mostly for my learning, but feel free to peek at them if you want.

Good luck everyone! This is going to be amazing!

ps. I love that not only that this post’s slug includes ☃, it’s the second such post.
