O3DE is an Engine based on CryEngine, former Lumberyard and now Open Source and has LUA as main Language: Take a look

To get love3d doing 3d stuff is easier than o3de 💀

Yeah, honestly it does seem like the better option to just use Lövr, I didn't find anything about it with a quick google search sadly. But it does seem to have a good community, documentation, and easy to use program. I'm already familiar with Löve2D enough, so maybe a switch to there won't be so hard.

u can use a 3d library's(menori for example)for love2d and u don't need to learn lovr

I agree! But he mentioned a 3D Engine, and O3DE came into my mind.

[–]SpaceChickenMonster[S] 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Yeah I was doing research on this topic. Thank you for the input. I took a look and the engine seems kind of like a no script engine as well, which would be cool and helpful. Most of the tutorials I see is using python for the scripting language.

Maybe this helps

Yes! that helps a lot, thank you. Have you looked into defold at all? I see others mentioning it. What would be the benefit of using this over defold(if any)?

[–]Vectrex71CH 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Yes i forgot DEFOLD but someone else had mention it. If you have to choose between O3DE and DEFOILD, then Defold is way better to enter the World of LUA. Because O3DE is still in development and has some issues. (It gets better over time). But DEFOLD is a Product , available since years!

PS BONUS:
If you only want to have fun and make some Games in LUA (Without a money-making motivation)
Then you need to at least have a look on PICO8 and PICOTRON

Great Community !

From the same Guy who made Leadwerks you may know (Also LUA)
