Hi,
I want to try to create a game using D. I'm a complete newbie
though (other than having C/C++ experience). Where would I
start? Does D have an openGL binding? I am assuming I'll need
to leverage a good amount C APIs? Any list of these that would
be useful it a game setting?
Obviously this all depends on *how* much work I want to do.
Ideally, I'd like a collection of tools that will get me
roughly the equivalent of what XNA provides.
I use GFM, https://github.com/d-gamedev-team/gfm
It's pretty easy to use and saves alot of headache. Downside is
that the documentation is somewhat outdated (namely close()
functions are deprecated, you have to use the destroy attribute,
or typecons).
SDL + OpenGL is easy with GFM.
here is a good opengl tutorial : http://www.learnopengl.com/
