Trials of Making a Game

May 31st 2007 03:14
Well I sure have come a long way from the last update, I have a semi-completed the goals I wanted to originally and have done some other minorly cool stuff.

My Efforts
My Efforts 2.0


Now it may not look like it but the above recquired more coding than the last update, about two to three tiems more in fact. The reason? Animations. I went to hell and back to figure out how to load up animations from models, to hell and back!


Theres also a neato physics system though it is somewhat buggy.

I hope you get a short demo off the ground that we can try out...

you can probably expect the demo in 2 to 3 months.

Or 3 to 4, the physics engine implementation is extremely buggy, I'm going to trash it and start fresh X_X

The game itself will be free

If Apple gets off its bloody arse and creates a proper Graphics API for the Mac, otherwise I don't see how thats possible.

I knew you'd say something like that!

Just stirring - I have some HD space reserved on my windows pc for your game, Ahmed.

Mind you, I tried running Last Starfighter after you mentioned it, and my P4 didn't cope, so...

Yeah I'm quite predictable like that

heh, well we'll see if it runs on your PC when we see, in the coming months, bleh, can't wait for exams to be over.

It really should, I don't know about the starfighter game, it probably just didn't lick your hardware very much.
