@sixlettervariables this is very cool. Did you go with your own syntax over the in-game one for any particular reason?

I started with my own syntax too - I didn't realise that there was an in-game asm syntax until I saw the solutions project that @atesgoral did!

An advantage to using the in-game syntax is that there is a wealth of files to test against your engine - both by copying solutions from your own game, and also the ones in the solutions project. See the tests in my project to see how I use the expected input/output from the actual game (in the level data project linked above) to test my engine

I may implement some of your error checking, at the moment I have next to none.

I'll revise my grammar today to meet the game's, I just hadn't seen it. I'll also see about breaking it out so other projects can use it.

Good to see I'm not alone in my endeavors! On Oct 24, 2015 4:31 AM, "Nik Coughlin" notifications@github.com wrote:

I'm glad you went with pegjs, it's the only js expression grammar tool I'm familiar with!
