General

Currently the game is built using several yaml files and different processing layers to e.g. convert a .psd file to an atlas file that I can use.

Although I can currently create the entire game using the yaml files, it is better to create as much as possible in an editor. With the advantage that in the future I can also make the editor available so that everyone can make an adventure game ;).

Design

I have been looking for different ways to make a GUI and whether LUA is the most suitable. After several attempts and different programming languages like Pyton & plain javascript I decided to make the GUI for the editor myself. And thus stay with LUA. This has several advantages as I can communicate directly with the engine3 and reuse all the functions I created there.

Since this is in development I can’t tell much about it yet and what exactly it will look like.

The rest is still under development and I will add to the article here.
