Love2D WebPlayer (WebGL)

[zapaman]

Technically,they don't need to use it! You just have to bundle your game with it and send it to them! Either or do what kongregate does, embedd the game window into an iFrame

Well, the game should be a .swf or .flv file normally, so it's better asking before trying

Send a JS/HTML5 game to a game flash dedicated website? That's not natural!
Unless they host also JS games that don't seem the case.
Nixola why you don't get a free website with php capability and host there your game?

BTW .flv is usually the "flat" flash video extension so (interactive) games don't use it And .fla is the main source code that some flash game hosting could ask to implement their "ad" or "ladder" API's.

One (and only one) of their games was a .flv file... Anyway, I already have a website with php capability, I'm trying to make Play! work there but the webplayer doesn't seem to have sounddatas...
EDIT: setPitch doesn't do anything and source:Stop() isn't implemented...

Code: Select all

notes.soundDatas[i] = love.sound.newSoundData( 22050, 44100, 16, 1)

ah sorry, webplayer cannot handle raw sound data yet, only sound files like .ogg .wav .mp3
e.g.

Code: Select all

local src = love.audio.newSource("data/powerup.wav","static") 
...
src:stop()
src:rewind()
src:play()

Flashgames.it : the webplayer is the same license as löve (see github), so if they want they can do anything they like with it. i'd just appreciate being mentioned and getting some patches if they fix/extend it, but even that's optional. They might not be willing to use it, since it is webgl rather than flash, and making a game work isn't exactly automatic most of the time. They'll also need to get it to work on their own, since when i have time for webplayer, i want to spend it on making more löve api stuff work.
The file formats .swf and .flv are flash. Love2D WebPlayer cannot generate those, it uses javascript+webgl instead of flash.

@ ghoulsblade: I'm interested in doing some work on the WebPlayer, since I really see the potential in using Love for web games! Made a github account, going to fork the project and see what I can add/fix!

awesome, looking forward to it =)

no php needed. the php file in github was a contribution to generate the preload list automatically, i haven't even tested if it still works lately. just go with index.html from one of the game-subfolders instead and adjust the preload list.

Hola, comrades. This is a pretty cool thing right here!

I wrote a few lines to support graphics.setLineWidth and graphics.setBlendMode (after SiENcE kindly ported my LD24 game over here). Just sent a pull request over on the hub.

Does this work with 0.8.0?

[ghoulsblade]

0.8 : shaders and some other things don't work yet in webplayer, but basic stuff works fine :
