libtcod+lua

[Xecutor]

Anyone interested in libtcod enabled lua scripting host?
i.e. application that can run lua scripts and have built-in support of libtcod.
I even have 'walking @' with fov demo in lua

It's completely standalone (beside libtdoc and SDL runtime).
It's probably good for prototyping... if you know lua

While I don't know lua that well, I'd bet it was fast enough to run as a game itself, since libtcod would be doing a lot of the heavy lifting in terms field-of-view and such.

If it were me, I'd write the bindings as a separate package and create a combined interpreter as an example. much more useful that way.

It is separate package.
But lua can't just import external bundle.
You need to import it from your program and register in lua.
I might add some more useful for rl development extensions.
Ultimately I want to make kind of 'roguelike builder'.
Tool where you can design your classes, fill data, draw vaults and portions of maps.
And play

I didnt mean package to load into lua, I meant write the c/c++ files that bind as a separate setup, so anyone can drop it in their existing lua/tcod game.
