I think we should gather some DSLua coders and create one game or a program that is unique :D

Like a game where you poke a bomb to light the fuse which is eaten by a fish in a waterfall in a crater on mars?  ???

No, no! I think it's a good idea... I was just joking (aint it obvious?)

Seriously, though..... what kind of game? Maybe something similar to Warioware Touched -- a bunch of DS microgames, we can all make them! Just 10-second-style minigames that use what DSLua already can!  ;D And we can have 10 games run per compilation for starters... *goes off to make this idea work*  :P

I am almost done with the shell, should be done sometime today or tomorrow... I have officially named it 'DSLuaWare: Poked!'... even a cool logo image!  ;D

All the minigames will take place on the bottom screen. More info to come, as soon as I finish it!

How does "the shell" work? Will it be easy to add/remove/change mini-games? How will you let "the shell" know what mini-games are present?

The shell is like a Warioware: Touched! Gameset (for example, in 8-volt's games, you see a Nintendo-themed shell between games). It will be extremely easy to add/remove/change minigames, I made sure of that. You let it know what minigames are present by changing the minigame require(game) values in userinput.lua.

well i think we should halt this project till your new version of DSlua is out daltonlaffs since my game kinda depends on it now since i have the art for the wifi i want in my game


Title: Re: DSLua Collaboration
Post by: daltonlaffs on October 31, 2006, 04:08:35 PM
For now, just continue with your development... you can always do Wifi after you finish Story Mode  ;D

Can I see the shell? I want to work on it too...

And see exactly how to make the mini-games. They won't be seperate right? Maybe at the end of the require()'d game it will have a points variable that is set, that the shell uses to add to the total points

I did reg #dslua on blitzed (irc.blitzed.org) quite a while ago, I just never told anyone. Get ahold of me on MSN/AIM/IRC and I'll op you..

EDIT: here, i set up a pjIRC java client.

Sorry to reopen this but I still believe its a brilliant idea! A fighting Engine with new original characters would make us famous!

Ah, I remember this. You're bringing up my DSLuaWare idea again, eh?

As sad as I am to say it, however, the old mare of DSLua seems to be down. It's got too many bugs.

Sy is working on a new version of DSLua (sorry if I wasn't supposed to say that ^^), which will not use PALib, so let's pray that will bring the hope back.

I collaboration between many dslua coders on one project will be brilliant. ;D
