I am looking for a mentor.

Post by somepersonguy »

Hallo!

I am a high school student from the U.S. who has been assigned a senior internship project. I have chosen to do a software-related project, as I have several years worth of programming experience, mainly in Python, Javascript, and Java. I have made games before in Java (using the Swing GUI library) and Python (Pygame) and I thought it would be cool to try and make games in Lua. Essentially what I will be doing for the project is learning Lua, the Love engine, and perhaps a networking library of some sort. However, before I do all of this, I need a mentor to guide me through the process. No, we do not need to meet in person. According to the project rubric, we can communicate via email, Google chat, whatever kind of chat (except Skype because I do not have a webcam), etc. I promise that I will not be too much of a burden, just asking questions here and there and seeking guidance, of course. I am a quick learner :D If anyone is interested in mentoring me, I will be forever grateful!

You should be able to use our IRC channel (#love at irc.freenode.net) to ask any questions you might have.

We're usually friendly and will be happy to assist you. Unless we're sleeping.
