• Ask HN: Yo wants to build a game, I'm lost. What can I do?

  I've built a few games with my son over the years. The fun part for us was all about fast iteration, and then laughing at the bugs together. There are some other recommendations here for how to approach 3d, and he is specifically asking for 3d -- but I want to put in one more pitch for 2d: the fun-to-tedium ratio can be much higher. I wonder if you could spend some time prototyping some of his ideas in LÖVE... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Show HN: A variant of Conway's Game of Life in color you can run on your phone

  * When a cell is born it randomly takes on the color of one of its (3) parents. To try it out: 1. Install LÖVE for your device from https://love2d.org (~5MB and open source). (iOS requires building from source on a Mac, or installing the third-party Love2D Studio: https://love2d-studio.marknoteapp.com) 2. Install my Lua Carousel from https://akkartik.itch.io/carousel (~100KB). It includes all its source code and... - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Gearing up for Lua

  Probably the most important piece of software we'll be playing around with is a game engine called LÖVE. Lua is well known around developer circles as being a good scripting language when it comes to making games, and this engine is one of the more popular. I'll be going through installation at the end of this post. - Source: dev.to / 4 months ago

• Original Sling'n'shoot Worms Game

  I got it – these are the steps I took: 1. Download Love from https://love2d.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Can't make my mind about which engine to use

  LibGDX is great, but I can understand if it's not for some people. This also applies to love2d, raylib and Monogame. Source: 5 months ago

• Normal Map Interpolation on Deferred Shading

  For some reason that I cannot understand in my case the calculated shading normals are pixelated. Compared to playcanvas.com (probably a forward renderer), mine is like utter shit. Source: 10 months ago

• Migrating from WordPress After 12 Years

  PlayCanvas has been using WordPress for 12 years now. Generally speaking, it's been fine. However, after much consideration, we have migrated away to Jekyll + GitHub Pages. I thought our experience might be of interest to other WordPress users (if only to confirm why you wouldn't consider switching): Https://blog.playcanvas.com/moving-from-wordpress-to-jekyll-a-case-study/ Interested to hear peoples' thoughts...

• I made a 3D editor that models in pure CSS+HTML

  It's just a cool tech demo that pushes CSS to its limits, but it's completely useless if you want to create usable 3d models. If you want to model in the browser, you can check out vectary, playcanvas, or spline. Source: 12 months ago

• I made a 3D editor that models in pure CSS+HTML

  The model in the video has no spheres, which is why the performance is decent. In any case, I agree with you for the most part, I'm just lazy and didn't expect anyone to actually want to use this for serious modelling. You should check out playcanvas or vectary if you are serious about in-browser 3D modelling. Source: 12 months ago

• Help With Web AR App Project Completion?

  Hey, I do not have any experience with deepar.ai so I’m not super familiar with the process using that platform. In my opinion I’d probably recommend another platform to try and accomplish this. Since you mentioned that you have everything set up in a engine already (lens studio) I’d recommend you just use a webxr engine. In my experience the two best engines are https://playcanvas.com and... Source: 12 months ago
