I normally use LOVE<\/a>, but\u00a0 think I’m going to switch it up and use Java, Slick<\/a>, and TilED<\/a>.\u00a0 Should be interesting- I haven’t used Java in 3 years or so.\u00a0 But I’m hoping to make something that people can just run in their browsers instead of downloading untold megs of LOVEly .dlls.<\/p>\n

I’m glad I checked these things out beforehand with a wee warmup, because TilED QT 0.4.1 doesn’t notice my mouse clicks if the application already has focus! So I’m going to use the eye-burning Java version of TilED.<\/p>\n

If it turns out that this change of coding scenery is killing my productivity, I may fall back on LOVE.\u00a0 I would in that case also use LUPUS<\/a>, a lua library which anyone is free to download and use.\u00a0 (If you do use it, beware the Grid class; it’s not passing all its unit tests and I’m not sure why.)<\/p>\n
