LÖVE

Yeah, sorry bout that, not that it's a hamper though, the slowing down time mechanic is a good idea not to be overdone.

Rewritten the platforming code of Nikki from scratch again and I want to show it, but I can't seem to find a good screen recorder for making animated gifs...

I'm working on a dungeon-maze generation library in lua.

So far, this are my results.

Neat!

I'm assuming you're not using the colours for the final game, though? The wall-tile has a really weird look to it because of the repeating pattern...

Just migrated from Processing to LÖVE/Lua and, of course, being not pleased with some things I decided to scratch my own itch.

Therefore I'm working on making the best possible LÖVE IDE out of Gedit.

Sneak peek of one of the features for it

Progress on Big-B --

Couple of things going on, when a bomb goes off, time slows down and allows for some interesting play of running into a group of enemies, setting off a bomb and shooting the rest. Might work this mechanic into different weapons.

Implemented some knockback when enemies are shot. Now realizing I need to implement a new collision system to handle more arbitrary shapes so I can build play areas rather than just having a big open area.

Ironically enough, I was about to post about something that could help you: MLib.

MLib is short for Math Library, but it does more than just math. It can check collisions for any non-intersecting polygons. If you want to use it, you can check it out!

@davisdude I appreciate that, do you have any experience with collision resolution? e.g. player reaches an edge I can get them to stop but skating along the edge seems very tricky right now

Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with that sort of thing, but this might help you.
Good luck!

Weell it's a library , not a game.
