The JeansThe #playdate is such an interesting platform to develop for.
Robin@jeans Seriuosly! I am finishing up a board game now and it was a lot of fun and challenge.
@robinmaypanpan Thats awesome! I cant even imagine all the cool mechanics you can make for a board game on the platform! Have you been using C or LUA, if you don’t mind me asking?
@jeans lua! Lua is really fun and easy to use... but it SUCKS for high speed board state evaluation and generation. I'm probably going to write a C method to do that...
@robinmaypanpan Lua is awesome in a lot of ways. I love how accessible it is, but performance definitely isn't its strength haha. I haven't used any C yet but I plan on changing that over the next month. Let me know how it goes for you!
Dave Heinemann 🇦🇺@jeans I finally caved and preordered one yesterday. I'm excited to give it a spin, but it might be a while before it arrives.
@dHeinemann ‼️ I hope it shows up soon! I don't think you'll be disappointed. I was lucky enough to find mine in a local used game shop and I HAD to scoop it up. I paid a bit above MSRP but it has been sooo worth it!
