I have finished, and I am posting tutorial 0E (14) in my A Summoner’s Tale tutorial series. This tutorial makes the tile engine more like Eyes of the Dragon. It also implements the character layer and places a character on the map. You can find the link to the tutorial on the A Summoner’s Tale …
New Eyes of the Dragon 4.0 Tutorial – Part 09
I have just finished uploading tutorial 09 in my Eyes of the Dragon 4.0 tutorial series, titled Who’s That Girl? In this tutorial, I add a non-player character to the game. It is shorter than my other tutorials but demonstrates how to share data between the game library and the shared library. You can find …
Second Forest Rush 3.8.1 Tutorial!
I have just finished uploading the second Forest Rush 3.8.1 tutorial to my Google Drive and sharing it on my site’s Forest Rush 3.8.1 page. This tutorial adds in just a touch more infrastructure, the state manager and the input manager. Even the input manager is at the absolute bare minimum needed in the game. …
No Tutorial Tonight
Well, the title says it all. Unfortunately, there will be no new tutorial tonight. I’m close, but I don’t see myself being able to finish it. I was working on the second Forest Rush tutorial. It was going well up until I got to jumping. I know that is something simple, but the answer is …
First Forest Rush 3.8.1 Tutorial!
After reviewing my Google Analytics, I discovered that many people were visiting the Forest Rush page, which was my attempt at a platformer game. Unfortunately, because of a loss of interest in tutorials and decreased time, I never gave it a good go because I was working again. However, with my renewed vigour and enjoyment …
New A Summoner’s Tale Tutorial! Part 0D
First, you must be wondering what the hell she is doing up at this ungodly hour. I honestly don’t know. But I will notch it up to insomnia. The good news is that I finished part thirteen of my A Summoner’s Tale tutorial series. This tutorial parallels Eyes of the Dragon in part eight. It …
It’s Time For The Weekend!
Yes, it is my second favourite time of the week—the start of the weekend. The only time I like better is the start of the week. Okay, the second part was an attempt at humour. I enjoy Sunday morning. It is a nice, quiet day, most often—a good day for tutorials and projects. Speaking of …
It Was a Dark and Stormy Night
Okay, enough cliches. It was a dark and stormy night, though. It is the type of night that I would usually be coding up a storm. Tonight, though, I didn’t have it in me. I didn’t have writing in me either, or I would have worked on the next A Summoner’s Tale tutorial. What’s Next? …
New Eyes of the Dragon 4.0 Tutorial – 08!
First, sorry that this one took so long! It seemed to keep growing longer and longer with no end in sight. Then, finally, I actually cut a little out of it. It is almost twenty-seven full pages long, about six thousand words. The writing took much longer than the programming. Anyway, it covers some adjustments …
No News Is…
Well, no news is no news. So, what is the news? As far as tutorials are concerned, I need more time for the next one. I wanted to finish it this morning, but that didn’t work out. I had some surprise meetings that I had to do and get a website deployed. So, I’ve been …
