  • LÖVE: a framework to make 2D games in Lua
    26 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 13 Sep 2023
    I liked working with it (the library) but learned I hate working with Lua just slightly less than I hate working with JS. At least in JS we now have TS and things like Elm.

    I ended up moving to https://github.com/libktx/ktx for that little project.

    so kotlin is the preferred language for android development. It's fully interoperable with java and is usually touted as a better less boiler-platey java alternative. The language itself is very nice, with a lot of modern features and really nice syntax. It also has a really cool multiplatform system and a nice ecosystem for crossplatform libraries making it really nice for gamedev where you want to target all platforms. Some cool kotlin gamedev libs to check out if you're interested is https://korge.org/, https://littlekt.com/ and https://github.com/libktx/ktx (really nice kotlin bindings for working with libgdx which is a really mature crossplatform java game engine.

    There is a Kotlin extension project for Libgdx, KTX. Its a good start as a beginner, there are lots of good tutorials for libgdx. Its good you limit your scope to top down games like Pokemon or Zelda.
