This page and the #haskell-game IRC channel on irc.freenode.net is the starting point for everyone interested in doing game development with haskell. There is quite a lot of games, unfinished libraries, and interest out there - please gather links to all of it here!


Applications and libraries/Games - a partial annotated list of games and game libs in Haskell

Some Hackage categories to explore: Game - Game Engine - Graphics - Sound - Physics

I am interested in learning how to program games. I created this wiki page for a discussion on game programming. I am interested in how to construct a game program. How does the the general game behave, which abstractions could be done in games, how is the gameplay, and what primitives could be used to construct such a game program? I suggest to consider simple, concrete games; here an attempt on a "five-in-a-row"-program: game-1.0.tar.gz
