Learn MoreToday I migrated my Shadow Monsters from MonoGame 3.7.1 to 3.8. I ended up having to create a new user profile to do it. It’s because of a bug in MonoGame 3,8 where if there is a space in the folder name the content builder is in it breaks. I used my full name so […]
I’m going to be taking a break from tutorials. I can do the code but I’m having problems with the writing. It just hasn’t been flowing. I will still be working on my game and a lot of it will be going into the Shadow Monsters tutorial series eventually. I will also be porting my […]
I didn’t get much work done on anything yesterday. I was debugging some problems with Visual Studio. I managed to fix them up this morning. I did update my demo version with my latest changes. If you want to bind shadow monsters you can buy binding scrolls in the house to the east of where […]
I’ve been working on my Shadow Monsters project. I added in the ability to bind shadow monsters similar to capturing pokemon in Pokemon. It is working okay. I will probably change the animation but it works for now. Here is a short video of the battle engine with the binding process.

Today was a good day for my Shadow Monsters project. I made some good progress on adding polish to the game. I have almost all of the essential areas of game play working. There are a few areas that I still need to work on. They revolve around battling other characters and some display issues […]
As well as working on my Eyes Of The Dragon tutorial I worked on my Shadow Monsters game. I worked on capturing random shadow monsters. I’m pretty happy with the results. Developing the game is getting less and less about programming and more and more about content creation. The editors are all in good shape […]
A day later than I planned but I just uploaded tutorial five of my MonoGame tutorial series Eyes of the Dragon to my Google drive. This tutorial adds in a sprite for the player to control and does some work on the role playing system. I’m using a variant of the SPECIAL system for the […]
I did some work on tutorial five in Eyes of the Dragon today. I got a good start on it, about half way through I’d say. I have the code ready to go for the rest of it but I need to do the writing. I should have it up on the blog tomorrow. The […]
