Ahoy there, over the last few weeks I put together a Lua engine for making games. It has a dozen functions:<\/p>\n

\u2013 params_get(k) \/ params_set(k,v)\n\u2013 file_load(name)\n\u2013 file_save(name,data)\n\u2013 view_set(x,y,w,h)\n\u2013 image_draw(name,x,y,w,h)\n\u2013 sample_play(name)\n\u2013 stream_play(name)\n\u2013 stream_stop(name)\n\u2013 font_draw(name,points,text,x,y)\n\u2013 font_size(name,points,text)\n\u2013 ext_call(action,data)<\/p>\n

I used it to make this game for #1GAM last month: Turkey Tomahawk Turbo<\/a>. If you think the game looks exciting, the Lua code is right in there, and you can modify the files and write your own game with it. I also ported the engine over to JavaScript so you could also release your game to the webs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll probably use some of the GUI \/ Tile rendering code that is in those Lua files. It\u2019s pretty simple stuff.<\/p>\n

Anyway, that\u2019s my official base code declaration for this upcoming LD! If you end up trying out my engine, do email me or something I\u2019d like to see what you made. <\/p>\n
