Is this AI generated, or someone thinks middleware aimed for game development is the same as a game engine?

Regardless, can someone help me in finding some kind of middleware similar to , , , and ? I can't find anything else, especially thanks to and/or people not understanding the difference between engine and middleware. All I need is a fixed buffer audio stream (worst case scenario, I'll use my own that I started writing for my own middleware I can't finish due to lack of time), input handling, and creating an OpenGL window. I don't have enough time to tinker with my own middleware and/or directly hooking into the OS (thanks to SEO, a lot of the search results are also garbage for stuff like rawinput).

jaycalixto,

@PixelPerfectEngine I know of macroquad for that is kinda similar to raylib https://github.com/not-fl3/macroquad

Only one can exist!

jaycalixto,

@djlink funny how different the results are between here and twitter (And twitter is obviously wrong, as usual)

I understand that cannot export console games because it's an open-source engine and stuff but so is Defold and on their website (https://defold.com/) it says that they can export to Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox. How can they do this?

jaycalixto,

@MIfoodie there are some hops to publish to consoles, like: https://defold.com/manuals/nintendo-switch/
I believe godot have something similar that was released a few weeks ago

jaycalixto,

@MIfoodie found it: https://www.rawrlab.com/godot_nintendo_switch_free_port.html

Nobody likes the 30% AppStore fee, but it has never been a credit card processing cost.

It has always been a marketplace access fee.

That’s the principle of building malls and other commercial public spaces: they invest to create a space for people to flock into and advertise and maintain it.

That’s what you are paying for.

jaycalixto,

@Migueldeicaza @ErrantSoul But you can't sell your goods anywhere else...

jaycalixto,

@Migueldeicaza @ErrantSoul that only works if your webapp is a service, but I guess we'll keep disagreeing on that

Hot take: I think hot locations are unfun, creating a temporary homogeneous meta

💃🏻 de hoje, mas em 1972, nascia Rebecca Romijn, que na trilogia dos X-Men (2000-2006) viveu a Mística.

Rebecca correu para que, nos filmes a partir de 2011, Jennifer Lawrence pudesse voar (não literalmente). Também atuou em outros filmes da Marvel, DC e Star Trek.

jaycalixto,

@augustocc Ela fez também The Librarians, uma das minha séries de baixo orçamento favoritas

Just hit infinite with this move elsa deck. This season was hard, so I'm using shang chi vs destroy and shuri and luke cage vs shadow king and high evo

jaycalixto,

@MuseumShuffle that was hard also, they always get their combo. Was thinking of using polaris to move their invisible woman, but spiderman on 5 usually was enough

jaycalixto,

@MuseumShuffle oh yeah, she's awesome 😁

Devs who’ve done both, what do you think?

jaycalixto,

@djlink i think they have different focus, like business software in code readability while gamedev is more concerned with performance.

2 pictures of original Final Fantasy 7 dev team, every workstation cost $70.000, Square purchased 200 of them. That's ~$14M just on workstations, game budget was ~40M. If you haven't read it, Final Fantasy 7 An oral history is a very interesting article https://www.polygon.com/a/final-fantasy-7

jaycalixto,

@djlink that first image 🤩

If you're a #gamedev working with #pixelart artstyle, and looking for an engine to use, maybe after all the #unity debacle? Then I can suggest my own.

  • Written in D (quite similar to C#, save for the underlying framework).
  • Pixel-perfect graphics, no "pixel misalignment" due to mismatched assets.
  • Retro-inspired GUI.
  • Unicode text rendering from real bitmap fonts.
  • Built-in palette-swap effects, real-time color lookup.
  • Relatively low overhead and footprint (3-5MB executable files).
  • Software synthesizers for audio, one even has some feline-looking sine wave.
  • No per-install monetization BS, instead you can support me via either Patreon (https://patreon.com/ShapeshiftingLizard) or Ko-Fi (https://ko-fi.com/shapeshiftinglizard)
  • Fully #opensource, you can both check what's under the hood, or even completely modify the code for your own liking.

jaycalixto,

@MuseumShuffle forge, brood then absorbing man is insane. Some people retreat just after that

What I DONT like the most about the Steam Deck?

jaycalixto,

@boilingsteam The fact that Valve doesn't want to sell it here 😡
