Mist - A steam like game client for Love 0.9.0

Post by ds84182 »

Vapor is love, Vapor is life, but Vapor is 0.8.0 :cry:
So I sat down in my noisy grandmother's house, and I attempted at something like it. I started working on Mist on Wednesday, May 28... 3 day before it's reveal. For three days of work it's pretty well polished! I also created a library to aid in booting Love2D games inside an already running Love2D instance, called libgameload. Anyways, here is a screenshot (a crappy one).

Here is the repo that contains Mist

(Also, for the people who lack mice, heres some keyboard keys to navigate Mist:)
In the Main Menu:
  • Enter: Open the game
  • S: Open the store
  • D: Delete the game (but not the save files)
In the Store:
  • Escape: Exit the store
  • Space: Download the selected game
In a game:
  • Any way to quit the game (Includes menu options, keys, and the close button): Exit the game and return to the menu

Not bad, some instructions in the platfrom would be nice and some buttons would do good as well.

Yeah, I'm making buttons right now. I might experiment with fancy UI stuff :awesome:

It took me a while, but I added buttons to it. I am also going to start adding transition stuff (going between game banners and such)

Very cool. I really need to get vapor up to 0.9.x :)

I looked through the code, and I found some cool things. Nice start!

Big question; how do folks contribute games to the project?

josefnpat why haven't you done it already? it's mostly small changes that 0.9.0 introduces, just a few things that needs to be renamed.

I want to keep compatibility with 0.8.0, which adds significant complexity.

May I ask why? most people have switched to 0.9.0.

There are still a lot of games created in 0.8.0, e.g. Mari0.
