I’m currently in the process of making a very simple, basic, and powerful scripting language that would make the development of 2D games easy for new programmers and speedy for experienced ones. It will use the Java virtual machine to run and will not require any other software installations. There won’t be objects, but there will be some primitive types including float, long, sound, image, and boolean. The language will slightly resemble Scratch by MIT, but will only need one document of code to create a program. Also, there are no fixed objects or drag-and-drop features. It’s in the super early stages of development right now, so there’s nothing much to show. I’m really hoping to get a working prototype by the end of the year though, so wish me luck!<\/p>","time":"October 3rd, 2012 4:27 pm","title":"Scripting language WIP"}
