Show HN: Open-source Android game written in Go
Hi HN!
So this all started out as an experiment. I wanted to test the Golang gomobile library to build a small app on Android in Go. And it turned out to be a game, and harder than I thought...
After a lot of work and many gotchas (and a lot of moments where I was about to give up and started to squint on Unity) I finally manage to create a working game for Android with Go.
The game is quite simple and if it wasn't for being written in OpenGL/OpenAL from scratch it would be quite simple to make it in Unity or any other game engine for that matter.
Another goal of my project was actually to make something that I could sell but still keep open source. I usually never sell anything, I put up all my spare time projects as open source projects on my Github page. Even if it doesn't sell I can now at least convince my mother to try it with a single click in PlayStore!
Anyway, I might be a bit biased, but the game is quite fun!
