Developing Games on the Raspberry pi: App Programming With lua and Löve (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "Developing Games on the Raspberry pi: App Programming With lua and Löve (en Inglés)"
Learn to set up a Pi-based game development environment, and then develop a game with Lua, a popular scripting language used in major game frameworks like Unreal Engine (BioShock Infinite, Batman: Arkham City), CryEngine (Far Cry series), Diesel (Payday: The Heist), Silent Storm Engine (Heroes of Might and Magic V) and many others. More importantly, learn how to dig deeper into programming languages to find and understand new functions, frameworks, and languages to utilize in your games.You?ll start by learning your way around the Raspberry Pi. Then you?ll quickly dive into learning game development with an industry-standard and scalable language. After reading this book, you'll have the ability to write your own games on a Raspberry Pi, and deliver those games to Linux, Mac, Windows, iOS, and Android. And you?ll learn how to publish your games to popular marketplaces for those desktop and mobile platforms.Whether you're new to programming or whether you've already published to markets like Itch.io or Steam, there are compelling reasons to use the Raspberry Pi for game development. Not only is it an inexpensive way to start along a rewarding and lucrative career path, but it?s a fun way to learn new technology. Since the Pi shares the same CPU architecture and system specifications as most mobile devices, using the Pi for development ensures that your game plays on computers both old and new, desktop or mobile.What You'll LearnConfidently write programs in Lua and the LOVE game engine on the Raspberry PiResearch and learn new libraries, methods, and frameworks for more advanced programmingWrite, package, and sell apps for mobile platformsDeliver your games on multiple platformsWho This Book Is For Software engineers, teachers, hobbyists, and development professionals looking to up-skill and develop games for mobile platforms, this book eases them into a parallel universe of lightweight, POSIX, ARM-based development.
