Gideros

Create amazing games for many platforms with Lua

Gideros launched on January 16, 2017 with 6 votes. The site was still online in September 2026, 9 years on.

What it does

Gideros is free and open sourced and provides the cross-platform technology to create amazing games. In a couple of hours, you’ll find yourself building and running your next great game. While developing your game, it can be tested on a real device through Wifi in only 1 second – you don’t waste your time with an export or deploy process. Developed on top of C/C++ and OpenGL, your game runs at native speed and fully utilizes the power of CPUs and GPUs underneath. You can easily extend the core with plugins. Import your existing (C, C++, Java or Obj-C) code, bind to Lua and interpret them directly. Dozens of open-source plugins are already developed and ready to use. Gideros provides its own…from gideros.rocks

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
