My Game Programming Adventures including projects and tutorials
No, it is not what you are thinking. I was working, hard, I might add, on the next Eyes of the Dragon 4.0 tutorial last night. When the strangest thing happened. I could no longer add content to my shared project. I must have spent an hour trying to fix it. It was to no […]
I apologize for not being present the past week. I’ve had a lot going on that has required my attention. It is over now, and I hope to fall back into my routine again. I will be starting work on tutorials again today. More on that in a moment. I want to give a shout-out […]
I have been working on the next Eyes of the Dragon 4.0 tutorial. It is shaping up slowly. I need some mechanics in order to create the combat system. Therefore, this tutorial covers creating the basics of the role-playing system and creating a character. I won’t get to combat in this tutorial because I will […]
It was quite a week for me. I have been dragging my ass since I finished my project over the weekend. Note to self: It is no good to complete a project if it burns you out! It is a lesson I will remember next time a surprise crops up. On the topic of my […]
Well, the easy part is done. I’ve finished 99.5% of the coding. The hard part will be the demo this morning because I’m not so great at talking in front of people. I have always dreaded it. Still, it has the potential to have a huge impact on our users. So for that reason, I’m […]
As the title says, I have a big meeting on Monday to discuss a prototype I’ve been working on. If it goes well, it will bring an editor from twenty-five years ago into the present. I’ve been working on finishing it. I still have a lot to go, but I’m confident I will finish before […]
I took a few days off to talk with people instead of computers. It was a nice change. Not once did I talk about game programming. Once writing came up but not what I usually wrote about. I enjoyed being under the radar. I’ve had enough, though. I’m ready to return to what I love […]
Well, it was dark. It was later in the evening, so it was to be expected. Okay, all joking aside. I have been very busy with my Shadow Monsters game. That, and work today, of course. I have made some good progress on Shadow Monsters. More on that later. I took a break from tutorials, […]
I have just uploaded, a rather lengthy, tutorial that covers the beginnings of the battle engine. I would have gone further, but it was already thirty pages. Also, I didn’t get to creating shadow monsters and triggering a battle. For the latter, I need the former. I felt I needed shadow monsters besides the test […]
I have just uploaded tutorial 11 (part 17) in my A Summoner’s Tale tutorial series to my Google Drive. This tutorial begins with adding shadow monsters and their moves. In the following tutorial, I will add actual combat between shadow monsters. As always, you can find the link to the tutorial on the A Summoner’s […]
