No, not for our game — that already got its sweet 20 ratings (thank you all!). This time, I need your wisdom for my latest side-quest.

I’m cooking up a boilerplate codebase designed to make your next Ludum Dare (or any jam) a smoother ride. The plan is to have it ready before the next LD so anyone can pick it up and skip the boring grind.

We're talking: - 🏆 Plug-and-play highscore tables - 🖼️ Basic texture rendering - 🎶 Audio playback management - 📋 Easily create some basic menu screens

All of it minimalist, intuitive, and open to hacking. I’m not building a framework — this is a launchpad. The kind of thing you can pry open and rewire however you like.

I'm writing docs too, so you're not left decoding mysterious variables at 3 AM.

🔍 What I’d love to hear from you:

• What daunting setup tasks always slow you down?
• Which features are a chore to you to implement every time?
• What things should I automate?
• What stuff should I stay away from?
• Would a setup wizard be cool or just a waste of time?
• Last one: JavaScript or TypeScript, which would you prefer and why?

Let me know what you want from a dev-friendly boilerplate. I’m all ~~ears~~ eyes!
