HollyBornes game update

Post by MarisaG1967 »

My game uses RapaGUI for the UI but rather than converting game logic from C to Hollywood I think i will keep the game logic in a stdin/stdout C app and only put the UI into Hollywood. This should be doable, right?

Yes with GetCommandLine() t get arguments
You can use console lib for many tasks
You can also open a network port and interact raw data

A lot of "gui frontends" has been build with hollywood because its easy and cross platform..

However keeping game will be easier for long term maintance compared to c imho ;-)
