I’ll discuss the refactoring reasoning, the common problems you run across in game architecture, and their solutions with their pro’s and con’s discussed. Finally, I conclude on how Robotlegs helps solve these common issues, specifically in a Lua & Corona context.
I’ve started the port of Robotlegs to Lua to work in Corona if you’re interested in learning more.
