My Game Programming Adventures including projects and tutorials
I have just finished part one of my Space Invaders tutorial. It is a fully functional game. The one thing I did not implement was the shields. I need to come up with a way to implement them. I have a few ideas that I will give a try. You can find the tutorial at […]
I have just finished uploading a new basic tutorial on MonoGame. It covers getting set up with MonoGame in Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code. It also talks about key game programming concepts instead of making a game. You can find the link to the tutorial on the MonoGame Tutorial page of my site. What’s […]
I have added two new Android tutorials to my site. The first tutorial goes over the basics of setting up your environment for developing games with MonoGame. The second tutorial covers creating fireworks as a brief introduction to Android. You can find the links to the tutorials on the Android MonoGame Tutorials page of my […]
It took longer than anticipated, but I have uploaded tutorial 16 in my Eyes of the Dragon 4.0 tutorial series. This tutorial continues where the last one left off, on encounters. You can now attack the bat, and the bat can swing back. You can find the link to the tutorial on my blog’s Eyes […]

Finally, I have uploaded the next A Summoner’s Tale tutorial to my Google Drive. This tutorial is about the editor for shadow monster moves. I had intended to do shadow monsters as well. However, that would have tripled the tutorial. So, I decided to cut it off at this point. You can find the tutorial […]
I have just finished tutorial 14 in my MonoGame RPG tutorial series on my Google Drive. This tutorial introduces mobs and the concept of encounter layers. An encounter is a planned interaction between the player and a mob. Normally, that interaction will result in combat. There is the potential for other outcomes, though. The tutorial […]

I have finally uploaded a new tutorial! This tutorial adds a character generator to the game. It isn’t final, but I couldn’t add more to it as it was getting long enough. Characters will use the SPECIAL system based on a ten-sided die. To check if an action occurs, you roll a D10. If the […]
