Re: Engine Dev
Along these lines, I toyed with the idea of using chromes renderer in a game engine. Apparently it's an isolated system that will take HTML (and potentially javascript?) and make the necessary draw calls. You just need to provide the draw calls. This was for a very UI driven game, based around inte...

Re: Engine Dev
I come from the web dev world, primarily, so the system is designed to be pretty close to a web browser, but with things I like about XAML as well. I'd ultimately like to add a custom scripting environment for it (probably either Lua or C#), but that would require a herculean effort to add an entir...

Re: Engine Dev
and to keep the logic specific to the particular enemy (zombie, skeleton, etc.) as part of the inheritance system, rather than having "singleton" components which are only ever assigned to a single type of entity. If you commit 100% to an entity component system, this generally won't occu...

Plenty of 3D games that take place essentially on a single plane, effectively making the game 2.5D (which is, of course, a perfectly acceptable art style, but is fundamentally a 2D game in design) Yeah definitely. The art style vs the gameplay need to be thought of separately. Depending on the genr...

Sorry for the ads, but things cost money
Hello developers, The cost of maintaining this website and forums is not very high. But it is an expense I'm trying to lower. The main website has had ads on it for a long time, and manages to accumulate enough ad revenue to pay for about half the hosting costs. Adding ads to these forums I'm hoping...

Re: My Game testing
