Billy is a 2D game framework written in PHP and Lua. It allows you to write 2D games in pure PHP. It works by sending data to a client written in Lua, which will handle things such as displaying graphics, playing sounds, or printing text to the screen.

Please note that while this works, it can be buggy in some cases, it isn't very efficient, and has yet to implement the entire LÖVE API. This was a project to help me learn PHP. So bear with me, and if you have issues, please create an issue using the issue tracker.

1. LÖVE 0.9.*
2. PHP 5.5

I included RunGame.sh to make this process simpler. The script itself is simple, but it's better than having to type the commands each time you want to run your game.

Be sure to set up your paths correctly.

./RunGame.sh

php app.php
love ./

I haven't written any documentation because of how much has yet to be implemented in the framework. For now, just check out the game examples in the [Show me some games](## Show me some games) section.
