libSDL support?

Vexar · 01 April 2014, 21:40

Hello,
I've been in a discussion with a friend of mine who wants me to write a game with him. Well, he's wanted it a long time, and as much as I celebrate programming on the Amiga, I'd also enjoy seeing the software run on other platforms. Near as I can tell, the best route to this is libSDL (Simple Direct Media Library) which is very popular. I've found a limited release on Aminet at v. 1.2.
Does anyone here have experience with libSDL on the Amiga? After my last post, I got set up with libSDL on my host(Linux) machine and feel comfortable with it, even if Eclipse is proving to be confused and I'm doing my compile from the command line. I know at some point, I will have to do a build on the Amiga, but I'm making gradual progress. Having someone to discuss things with would really help me out.
Thanks everyone on this list, you are all wonderful & awesome!

I think NovaCoder is the man you need.
He did the AGA SDL version and knows all about it.
Good luck with the game!
