About
BooBoo is a mini language that shares some DNA with assembly language but is much higher level. It includes two versions, one command line only version and one with a builtin, powerful game API.
Syntax
BooBoo uses Polish notation for syntax. That means the operation comes first instead of in the middle. e.g. + x 1 increments x.
Modelling
The DirectX .x exporter here: Codeberg link can be used with Blender 2.78 to export compatible models until a exporter is developed for new Blender versions. You should set it to a right handed matrix when exporting in the options, as well as make sure everything you want exported is checked.
Engine
The game engine is built on Shim. A few things in the command line version also use parts of Shim for convenience.
