A combination of a deckbuilder and a Tempest-style arcade shooter in very early development. Based on
Deckpest, a similar game I made for the TIC-80 last year.
Thanks to UnixRoot and grump for the trapezoid texture mapping tips in
this thread, using a similar technique to texture map the card. Hopefully I'll be able to contribute to the community myself by releasing a finished version of this game some day!

Once again I started a new game that consist of several files that do absolutely nothing.
Then I got bored and thought: "What about splitscreen?"
The new game does nothing except print unexciting debug text so instead I made this hackish experiment:
It is a just a slightly bugged test. (sometimes things are not drawn, alpha is messed, forgot to remove drawing particle systems from 'main screen' etc)
But I was surprised how simple that actually was. Just graphics.translate() with the player's coordinates and drawing my unchanged "drawIngame" for each player with a canvas as draw-target, less than 50 lines or so.

Wow! Really nice!
Can you make as-easy-as-possible example of it?

Well, I can just upload whatever this thing is.
The original idea was to make myself some more files that do nothing, an empty basegame or framework for future projects.
The problem is deciding how abstract the frame should be etc.
For example I usually have some table named players{} which holds each player's coordinates, health, score, etc. But what about games where a player controls multiple things? Like in Worms or Lemmings or RTS-games, there it makes not sense to have a players
.health. Instead you have maybe a table of worms with health that somehow are connected to a player.
To build the frame I have to build it around a throw-away game to test everything.
At that point I historically stop because:
... I lose interest.
... or turns into a game that is too closely interwoven with its frame.
... or I come to conclusion that there are so many cases where the game will not fit into the frame that the best, most flexible frame is surely an empty file. Then I happily close the editor, glad to have solved this problem by not having to type anything at all. 
See beginning of main.lua and ingameDraw() in ingame.lua
As said, this is just for testing and now to show good codedesign.

I work on some text adventure like stories. Where you make choices to progress forward on a map. While solving some mysteries and gathering things needed for progress. I use customized notepad++ for story editation. Developed a easy language that describes rooms and situations in game. And the whole app is showing the changes i make in the txt file during development which is nice. The app can export the story directly into a packed .love file for mobile devices.

Did you make this overworld map? What tools did you use? Looks nice.

Map is not created by me.
You can generate maps here
https://azgaar.github.io/Fantasy-Map-Generator/
Or manually make them here
https://inkarnate.com/
Other tools for maps
https://gameizmo.com/fantasy-map-maker/
There are also other map makers available, no need to make them. Or draw a simple one on paper and contact a forum of mapmakers. Maybe someone will draw it in the inkarnate for you.
