Graphics libraries in lisp for game development
Hello, looking for well tested, well documented game development library for lisp with 2d/3d graphics. i found a bunch of sdl, and opengl libraries here (unfortunatlly no webgl libraries) and i dunno which to choose from. Also I'm going to be honest and say that I'm very new to lisp (outside emacs lisp), but i think its just a fun hobby project to learn both lisp and graphics and i hope by the end of this ill have a simple antiyoy clone.

A free demo for Kandria (written in CL) is now on Steam
There isn't much in the ways of complete engines like unity or unreal, or even maintained godot bindings, but there is a community for making games at least, so you can get some work done if you go a little lower leveled than those. They some regular game jams for games written in lisp. As far as how common it is to use lisp I have no idea outside of it being used in Jak & Daxter.

What can i program with Lisp?
I don't really use Lisp that much, but it seems like a nice language to work with when it comes to symbolic stuff. They host pretty regular lisp only gamejams on itch, so you could take alook there at what people made and how. There are some resources overe here as well.

Autumn Lisp Game Jam 2021
For 2d games, Fennel with LOVE seems to be a maintained and good choice. Are there some Scheme 2d frameworks similar to LOVE that are still maintained and offer also packages with e.g. collision detection or physics? I have had a look at [0], but many seem outdated.

I heard there were attempts, but I don't quite remember what the end results were. I think someone indeed submitted Emacs-based games previously. If you find something, please, add information to Emacs Lisp page of lispgames for future adventurers: https://github.com/lispgames/lispgames.github.io/wiki/EmacsLisp

Ask HN: Favorite Game Engine?
I haven't used many engines, but I've been programming some simple games with LÖVE [0] and (to a lesser extent) LÖVR [1] and like them both.
But maybe not real game engines, as you need to do quite a bit of work by yourself. I guess it depends what your definition is of a game engine.

Is it really bad using an unpopular framework?
not to mention there's LÖVR as well if you want to 3D
-
Is it okay to ask a question about Lovr here?
As for your question - yes, it's possible to develop for the Quest. The website has information on how to do that.

Lua, a Misunderstood Language
I'll add LOVR (https://lovr.org/), the 3D analog to LOVE. Haven't used it personally so ymmv.

I love Python, but I ought to branch out. I've done some stuff in C# and Java, but never as much as I've done in Python.
If you are into VR, I'd try lovr.org. It allows you to build VR apps with just lua code.

Ask HN: Anyone tried development using an Oculus?
Personally I found LÖVR [0] easy to use, based on Lua.
