Using Gideros with Löve2D?

Dethiel

Hi guys, first of all I know Gideros is a great IDE, maybe the best one for me, but I want to ask this somehow:
Is it possible to use Löve2D inside the Gideros Mobile IDE?
Thanks in advance

i don't think so, if you just want a good ide for programming in lua then try zerobrane studio, that works with gideros and i guess also with love2d.

Dethiel

Alright, thanks for your answer, i'll take a look at zerobrane.

Edit: I think I stay by Gideros then. Löve2D is only optional for me as library. Gideros is complete and has everything

Imho you should stick with gideros studio and only change if you really can't use it.

Dethiel, you are right, I wonder why people use love2d

EDIT: funny I posted this a couple of days ago https://forum.gideros.rocks/discussion/8454/love2d-similitude#latest

If you are a beginner, then I would recommend using Gideros instead of Love2D. The reasons are as follows:
- availability of a development environment and additional tools;
- player for running and debugging games on desktop and mobile platforms (no assembly required);
- many features / architecture solutions already exist. Here, in a little more detail: on the game engine, you first create the game engine (architecture, class hierarchy, resource managers, etc.), and then fill the game with content. There is a lot to write in the Love2D engine from scratch; in Gideros, a part has already been done. It is obtained at a higher level of abstraction from the technical parts of game development.

Good luck with your development!

I think @hgy29 made a love library - so you could run programs made with Love using Gideros.

No SinisterSoft I think that was for ex-corona?

SinisterSoft

Ahh - yes, I think so.

Thanks for your comments.
@E1e5en: Then i thought the wrong thing. I thought Love2D is easier because of it's code, I watched some tutorials for Love2D too, good to know that.

I'll let you know when I've done something

I made both actually, but they are more proof of concept than libraries
