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 this<\/a> link. This is what the finished game looks like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What’s Next?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Up next will be part two of the Space Invaders tutorial. The other thing that I might do is a tutorial on the Snake game. That is a game where you control a snake and eat mushrooms. As you eat mushrooms, the snake grows. You need to guide the snake and not crash into the walls, rocks or yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Projects<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

So, I’m working on a card game that I’m calling Realms. It is a strategic game where you try to amass the most victory points or reduce your opponent’s live points to zero. I have the game playing fine locally, I’m the process of making it multiplayer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It feels good to be back in the tutorial writing game. I’ve missed it but I’ve been very busy with life and not able to devote time to it. I will be working on the blog and tutorials again, though. So, I’d suggest coming back to see any changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
