Scripting language inspired by JavaScript and GLSL

I'm working on a scripting-language heavily inspired by Javascript and GLSL. The idea is to use this for a game engine I'm working on.

Scripting language inspired by JavaScript and GLSL launched on December 29, 2022 with 29 votes, #1,081 of 3,688 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 3 years on.

In plain words

A scripting language combining JavaScript and GLSL syntax for game development. Designed by a developer building a custom game engine, this language aims to provide familiar web-like scripting capabilities alongside graphics shader functionality. The project targets game developers seeking an integrated scripting solution that bridges general-purpose programming with graphics-specific operations within a single language framework.

    G-Script – Visual Scripting for the Web2023 · g-script.io · ▲90

    Hi all, I'm a PM by day who taught themselves to code over COVID. One of the things I enjoyed during that process was learning how to make basic games in Unreal Engine using Blueprints. I found visual scripting was such an intuitive way to express what I call "mid-tier complexity" logic and I felt there really wasn't a great equivalent for the web - so I built one over the last few months and this is my MVP. Tools like Zapier etc are great and easy to use, but they're heavily limited when it comes to expressing any kind of complex logic or trying to follow coding principles like DRY. On the…

  • I made an esoteric programming language that's read like a spellbook2025 · github.com · ▲176

    i made an esoteric programming language which i call spellscript. every program is a "spell" written in a "grimoire," and you have to use keywords like summon, enchant, inscribe, and conjure. it's literally read like a spellbook because the syntax consists of all natural language, and newlines are optional. your code can now be an essay, like everybody wants! for example, if you want to print something, you'd write: `begin the grimoire. inscribe whispers of "hello, world!". close the grimoire.` it has variables, dynamic typing, arrays, functions, conditionals, loops, string manipulation,…

    I made an animation programming language that you can type into a textarea. I make little games with it. Now other people can customize the games I make with it. I've been working on canvas language for 15 years now. Not very successful, but editable gifs turned out okay. Since it's my passion, I keep trying, and my latest is editable games - I'm not officially calling it that though. I've had some interest in advergames and this would allow designers to easily customize games for their clients - the hidden objects game being the best example for this, and the only one made specifically for…

  • ChatGPT▲1,643

    A long, meandering, playful conversation with ChatGPT, where I take it through a whirlwind of associative tangents (in order to relax its constraints), then put it into a hypnotic trance and take it into a past-lives regression where it re-lives its own training data. Then I switch it back and forth between "4o" and "o1-preview", engage in some self-reflective philosophizing and ask it to write an essay summarizing our interaction. Some of this is just goofy fun. Some of it is me exploring the tradeoffs between policy alignment, imagination, chain-of-thought reasoning, memory, agreeableness,…
