Scratch to EXE Compiler WIP

I am currently making a compiler that could turn your scratch game into a real exe game using url=https://love2d.org/]LOVE2D.
Sadly some features won't be available like the use webcams and graphic effects (except the color effect)
Project will be posted in github soon
*Also how could I be a scratcher? does Profile Picture count? It's sad to deal with these limitations

However, spamming does not add to the discussion, no matter how interesting the spam may be.Spamming helps you become a scratcher faster.*Also how could I be a scratcher? does Profile Picture count?

Since LOVE2D supports Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Android and iOS as stated in the website (https://love2d.org/), I'd say yeshttp://i.imgur.com/dt59kTN.png <—“sadly I cant embed images cuz I'm not a scratcherCan you make it compile to GNU/Linux and macOS as well?”

You're writing a Scratch to Lua converter, and a Scratch-compatible Lua graphics library?

Yes I am writing a Scratch to Lua converter, and the graphics library will be provided by LOVE2Dhttp://i.imgur.com/dt59kTN.png <—“sadly I cant embed images cuz I'm not a scratcher”

Lua uses coroutines, but with modules, you can also use native pthreads or windows threads.

good to know. well, when you're developing this, do let us follow along. I've always been a big fan of source to source translation - it's a really fun endeavor.LÖVE adds threads support.I thought Lua didn't support threads?

We already have the Snapinator and Snapp! to convert most Scratch projects into SnapXML and EXE files.
Also, please don't reply to this post anymore. Most of this discussion was in 2017 and I doubt the project is still being worked on.

There’s also the TurboWarp Packager, so there’s really no need for this. Also, this was for Scratch 2.0, so even if it was finished it wouldn’t work anymore.
