This should include a way to easily and straightforwardly:
- manage events;
- handle different screens, and screen flow;
- handle "independent" subscreens
- handle game objects and physics;
- handle game model and data;
- (and anything else that might come up)
This structure should be generic enough to support all kinds of games from all styles.
Once that API is marginally settled, we can start working on some boilerplate code to help developers write better structured games in Perl SDL, like catalyst.pl does for the Catalyst Project.
Some work has started on Cogent.
