Anyone tried emscripten with love? Might be a solution for html5/webgl.

Punchdrunk is a much more viable solution. It runs the (precompiled) code in a browser lua VM and supplies hardware-accelerated canvas API bindings for the love functions, it doesn't get any better than that for JS (or does it?)

Code: Select all

print( type(love) )
if false then

end

SDL recently acquired an emscripten backend, which should make it easier to create a port of LÖVE to it. I don't know what else might be involved in doing that though.
