Which OO lib is right?

[Draetheus]

I'm getting back into LOVE and I realized that I could be spending less time on boilerplate code if I just used libraries. Primarily, I'm looking for an animation, collision, and OO library. AnAL seems to be the the primary animation lib (does it work with 0.7.2?), Hardon the primary collision lib, but I see there are 3 OO libs in the wiki: 32log, middleclass, and SECS (which has 4 versions). How do I decide?

Hardon has a class lib built into it, you could always use that.

Code: Select all

class = require "hardoncollider.class"

Slither. Every time!

Since you will be using HC, it makes sense that you use the class lib used on it, unless you need some feature that isn't on it (unlikely).

Hump also has a nice class library, in addition to the other utility libraries is provides: vector, gamestate, camera, etc.

If I understand correctly HardonCollider ships with hump.class, and the current or next version is supposed to have class commons support.
