Yes. The game is built on cocos2d-objc (very outdated) so I needed to modify some underlying behavior (like making sure everything properly runs on Metal) and also change at what resolution and how I render the core game world. It will now be a good foundation for any future updates!

I know you’re implementing an AppKit GUI, is it written in ObjC? Is the backend GTK?

🐝 In #BeeWare, Aarav Gauba fixed translation workflow issues, Mgs. Tabrani fixed a `TypeError` in Rubicon ObjC and added test coverage for its event loop, Karen Rincon added a `zizmor` pre-commit configuration, and Garvit Sharma corrected the tutorial's translation workflow.

even though i’ve never touched objc every apple launch with a new ui it’s lots of fun to read the docs to see how they got all this wacky stuff (folds! side buttons!) (ds mode!) manageable and thus time they are going straight for the jugular man

cursed idea: if it's originally objc port to Swift so you can use a Swift wasm compiler for a web port

How much did build times change? When I spiked it in our app the build times got like 2x slower iirc. We also went through the same song and dance of cleaning up the exports, and we actually did upstream much of that to our objc+skie version

@Edent modern-ish C++ is somewhat good tho. I wrote a small one-off project in Objective-C++ recently (it's a macOS app so it had to have an ObjC part to it)
