Creating video games can be quite challenging, but with cool frameworks like Love2D, Roblox Studio, and Pico-8 using Lua is really easy. Lua is fantastic for beginners due to its user-friendly, powerful embeddable scripting language, and extensive community support that makes it accessible for those learning to program. And honestly, it's perfect for people who are asking the question "How to learn how to program?" or "How to make video games".

bro why is all of this dude's art so clean 😭

The fact you can balance a real life job, family, youtube channel, and making all these side games is very inspiring! Keep up the good work goodgis!

Löve and Lua are absolutely my favourite way to make games! Thanks for covering Löve because it truly is a wonderful framework with a wonderful community of nerds! :)
I personally use it for 3D stuff too as it easily can be used as a smart wrapper for OpenGL

[AbyssmEdits]

His art is so clean mr. clean approves

I love that you're still challenging yourself to make all these games in other languages/engines on top of Dewdrop and real life. I bet it must take quite a bit of time to make these, but wouldn't be surprised if the novelty helps prevent burnout, etc. I'm always excited to see what project you're working on when a new Goodgis video pops up! :)

I named my cat Lua, my first reaction was "Oh cool, I love this coding language", my second reaction was "why are there cat paws??? how does this guy know about my cat" and my last reaction was hes making a game in lua about cats, I'm so stupid lol"

What a missed opportunity, you could have made it a yarn ball!

lua's most unreadable line of code
if 1 == 1 then
print("math still exists")
else
print("me confused")
end

Always glad when there's a new Goodgis video!!!🐱

[giveupndie]

I’m so obsessed with this series man I’ll be patiently waiting for the next one

[stevenunderwood]

This is really well polished. Have you ever looked into the Pico-8? They don't have vector art, but I'd love to see what you'd make!

I had been watching goodgis for a couple years now and I had recently gotten the courage to start game development using Lua and love 2d and A month later, this video came out. 😊

Somehow you can always make the cutest things. This was really nice

[mitsuakit]

knowing that this language was created in brazil makes me happy to see it in use

[yourkki]

This has a great potential, making multiplayer versus or maybe 2v2 would be a great addition, you can also do power ups, like speeding the ball up for a few seconds, or slowing it down

[Pillowzasleep]

What art software do you use. This art is SO IMPRESSIVE!

[SmileReal]

if anyone's wondering what the song is at 0:50

[XxOliveplayzXx]
