Nspire Lua Games!
« on: April 17, 2011, 01:34:07 pm »
Although Lua Programming on the Nspire was only discovered a few short days ago, a quick explosion of new games for the Nspire has come with its discovery!

First we have Goplat's original 15 puzzle game, the first Nspire Lua game:



Secondly, apcalc has been working on porting Block Dude Nspire to Lua:



Finally, ExtendeD, author of Ndless, has been working on a Minesweeper clone, 9sweeper:



We hope to see more progress on these games, and new developments for the Nsprie in the near future! :D

Sweetness. It just occured to me that TI let us use Lua on OS 3.0 just so that we'd make games and create tools that would let us finally use the thing so as to entice people into getting Nspires.
In other news, Frey continues kicking unprecedented levels of ass.

This is very nice! I hope to port Block Breaker to my new nspire, but I have allot of school work, so I don't know when that will happen.

I doubt it, given that simultaneously, they removed backwards compatibility with the only documents that we third parties could easily create programatically, without using TI's software. http://ourl.ca/10462  ;)

Well, maybe they're endorsing their own software at the same time?

You know, this rocks.  And it's interesting, a language not much harder than Basic, but with fast, beautiful games!

Yes it does. But only for 3D functions. My goal is to make a mini-Blender, as I managed to do with the TI-BASIC (but with a really lack of performance while rendering), and help French HighSchool student to modelize their exercices in 3D and understand better the math concepts.
