Phoenix Game Engine (PGE) Lua 0.01 Released


Submitted by greg; August 24, 2008
PGE Logo Lua developers -- virtually lend yourself a coder's hand with InsertWittyName and MK2k's Phoenix Game Engine. PGE Lua is a wrapper of the said engine allowing minimal code to execute more complicated routines -- file/directory access, TrueType font loading and drawing, socket functions, audio playback, USB I/O, and the list goes on... Watch the demonstration video below --
Furthermore, to help wrap your head around things, PGE Lua comes with 23 fully commented samples demonstrating the use of each module. PGE Lua API reference. C API coming soon. PGE Lua 0.01 features:
  • pge.controls - Handling button and analog input.
  • pge.dir - Directory access and file system operations that deal with directories.
  • pge.file - File access and file system operations that deal with files.
  • pge.font - TrueType font loading and drawing.

  • pge.math - VFPU math module.

This is big guys.., it's the first official LUA player since 2006. It's been in development for over a year. Haven't tried it yet but I trust it will rid lua of it's noobish image.
