Wow. I've never used any of those. Some of them I've never heard of. Let me explain: -Vala is a Gnome project, its aims to bring proper object orientation to GObject. Its syntax should be similar like C# and Java. The Vala compiler translates its code to C. -Scheme is the second big lisp dialect. -...

Still weird, as a lot of frequent visitors here (including me) use Linux/Mac all/most of the time. Hmm, i guess this is because Linux is more developer friendly imo (compilers included, dependencies can be installed with a package system) and this engine is aimed towards developers. About Mac i don...

Why DX and not GLSL? There is nothing of DX you can't do in GLSL too, and GLSL runs under Windows fine, too.
Using DX, you split the platform support and this is always a bad thing, since some platforms will be disadvantaged after a time.

C is terrible, so the name fits well.
But there already is orx game engine for C.
If you want to choose, what about languages like Vala, Seed7, Objektpascal (Gnu/Freepascal), Oberon, Modula3 ,Scheme, Eiffel ,Erlang..?

The trick is to make them from vector graphics in inkscape. This way it is easier to make cartoon graphics than making them in gimp.
BTW: Nice TD Game.

What's surprising about all the other libs taking 11 MB?
I'd rather expect Box2D to take more memory, since it's a very advanced 2D-Engine.
Even commercial Game Studios like 2D-Boy are using it.

You can measure it by printing the fps every second I guess. pretty good looking, good-feeling game :) even though I'm a sworn enemy to the 1mistake-and-u-die genre (as you already know ;) ) ... 1mistake-and-u-die.. seems a pretty good title for a iwannabetheguy like game. :ultraglee: @Xcmd:Ok, tha...

about 21 MB.

also how do you use a config file for different resolutions?

width = x
height = y
fullscreen = false/true
