LÖVE

Hi!

I'm a bit anxious, it's the first time I show my work, hehe. Let's do it anyway!

LövelyFE is an interface for MAME, an arcade emulator. It is aimed to be used in a cabinet (this kind of stuff).
It still is WIP but release early, release often they say!

It currently has :
-Correct browsing in the list of games,
-Search by name,
-A few images for "history" : picture of the original cabinet, original controls...
-A ugly look!
-Automatic generation of the list of games,
-Customizable controls.

I would like to add :
-A better interface for controls customization,
-A better look,
-Better image loading management for smoother browsing,
-Classifying by genre, year...
-Favorites.
- ...



I join a .love file if you want to try it. You should be able to browse the list and navigate in the menu, but not much more : the games themselves are not included, nor is the emulator to reduce the size of the file.
For other functions it is necessary to add the real MAME executable in the MAME folder.
-Up/Down for next/previous game
-Left/right for next/previous letter
-Enter to validate/launch game
-Space for menu/back

Code is hosted on github : https://github.com/YuShin/LovelyFE

All comments are welcome of course!
This is my first project of non-négligeable size, so general comments on organization, code quality, ... are appreciated


PS: By the way, Löve is Lövely, and as I had no inspiration for the name I kind of... stole yours

Nice. This would be useable for a arcade cabinet.

Yep it aims to be!
Though it still is very small in comparison with Hyperspin, AtomicFE and the others.
