Re: Some thoughts on a GB Studio style development environment for Love and Lua...

LOL you said that way more succinctly than I did, hah And thanks! It's moving along nicely. I'll eventually put it on github, but I want it to be more usable and stable before that. Then, once it's stable enough for a release, putting it on itch and it's own website. But that will be awhile! I fear ...

Re: Some thoughts on a GB Studio style development environment for Love and Lua...

Ah, wait, I see what you mean- I misunderstood! I thought you meant would it be using lua for scripting (since Lua is a scripting language, really...my first brush with Lua was in the late 90's, pre Love2d, when I created a series of Lua bindings for Allegro in C++)... Anyway, it won't support Godot...

Re: Some thoughts on a GB Studio style development environment for Love and Lua...

All of the IDE plugins for adding things like different battle systems, etc will be 100% in Lua. The event scripting (for player interactions, opening a treasure chest, cut scenes) will be available in Lua, and will in the future have a visual scripting component, and will hopefully eventually also ...

Re: Some thoughts on a GB Studio style development environment for Love and Lua...

Awesome! yeah, I've been working on something like this off and on for 20 years now? Ever since I was making C++ and Allegro games, and working on my first RPG, and thinking "Hey. I should make this easier to make RPG's"... Anyway, I think, after so many attempts, I have the skills now. I ...

Re: Some thoughts on a GB Studio style development environment for Love and Lua...

After some thinking, I realized that there are a lot of open source generic game dev engines (Godot, GDevelop, etc), and I figured it might be better if I focued this into a niche.
