Hi, I am experienced C++ programmer, recently switched to
indie gamedev
(1 title released commercially, another on the way). I am
really interested
in this for 2 reasons:
1) a chance to work with someone of your experience
2) as soon as it is possible (that would be D working on iOS)
I would
like to do a transition from C++ to D in our projects so new
experience in
D (and in the industry) is just perfect
Please consider me!
From the sounds of it, it'll be a community project so no
worries, just
join in.
Have a talk with the GDC compiler guys about helping with ARM
support and
getting on iOS. They could definitely use the help!
Although from my knowledge there probably will be issues with
tool chain
not verified by Apple.
One step at a time :)
It doesn't need to be released on the appstore, a running proof
of concept
would be a nice first step.
Probably easier to start on Android though, and perhaps even
more relevant
these days.
As a indie I can tell you that Android is ridiculously hard (or
impossible) to make a living on... Google made it so easy to
install apps that piracy is a norm. Apple has its flaws (Xcode
was a horrible horrible thing before very recently when they
switched to clang) but there is a chance to get your investment
back at least.
