Built a tiny physics game for the Apple Watch — it’s called PLÖPP 🎯
Shoot the ball by turning the Digital Crown and hit the holes.
Made with SwiftUI and SpriteKit.
A small game, no ads, no in-app stuff, just fun.

Anyone have links to good talks and tutorials for building SpriteKit games?

Here's the new powerup asset demo. I still need to fix a tiny bug with scoreboard occlusion though.

Okay, added some tutorials and better chicken sprites for my #indiegame for #ios that was recently rejected from TestFlight by @Apple . Let's see how it fares this time! #gamedesign #gamedev #spritekit

This is what I need right now. I think I figured out SpriteKit, but I'm not sure. Any Swift people have feedback?

SpriteKit for rendering and animation primitives, and then 40+ thousand lines* of custom engine code

Thanks! I set out to make a game and wasn’t happy with the available game engines so I’m making one as I go in Swift. I’m technically leveraging SpriteKit here, but it’s wrapped as presentation and rendering handlers and injected into my command dispatcher, so they are 100% swappable to whatever.

it's just a simple DAG with parent/children references. the task i'm noodling on is how the scheduler knows when to fire dependent animator functions and how those functions should do things.
renderer, scene, and primitives are provided by SpriteKit, the rest of the game is ~40k custom LoC so far.

Some more progress with #CiderKit with the first UI you can actually interact with. Very basic for the moment, but it works!

That's interesting, I'm exploring a similar path eventually as I love them both. Did you structure your SpriteKit to have a kind of entity-component approach for ease of porting, or did you move to Godot because SpriteKit allows for inheritance trees that can became messy and hard to scale?

@tapbot_paul yup, I assume SpriteKit.
