I'll give SLAYER a try before judging it, but my initial impression is
that it's not a good fit for me. Our goals seem to be different, and it
seems that you have your sights aimed much higher. Emacs is my
development environment and I'm not looking for a specialized
development environment to build games in using SLAYER or any other library.
I do really like that SLAYER can operate with software rendering OR
OpenGL rendering. That is quite the nice feature.
Perhaps I should explain my position more. My focus is on 2D game
development (but that's not to say that I want a library that is limited
to only 2D), which means I want a library with features like sprites,
sprite batching, tiling, animation, a 2D scene graph, event scripting, etc.
A combination of Guile-SDL and Figl could fit the bill for the base to
build off of.
Thoughts?
