  • Some old d3dx12 tests, playing with geometry being defined internal to shader, so convex hulls or simple spheres.

    and if I can't work out how to get video links to work via the "Add media", will just grab a screenshot of the text burn…

  • And now to loose some time on what it the easiest way to move this forward and on what path.

    Have been setting the ui architecture up so that certain effects would be easy to add into it, but also aware that may not be the current priority…

  • Of course, the sensible thing would be to use an existing game engine, but after a certain point, there is some curiosity if learning and fighting yet another game engine is really quicker that just writing something from scratch.

    And then…

  • Was looking for a reason to learn sql, and was feeling the urge to play an oldschool pen and paper rpg.

    didn't like gurps licence, nor dnd's 'open' source licence, then while looking around, found legendary quest, which is kind of neat.…

  • somewhat random, got up to speed with SDL (simple media layer) to see what it could do for me to make my life easier, also rewrote my game engine to be a lot more generic and support unittest.

    grey image is having fun bluring the depth…

  • Have never done that much database/php stuff, but was currious if you could make a game using javascript/canvas rather than flash.
    this seemed fine till trying to get Internet Explorer to work, in which case i would like to think flash works…

  • a week of prototyping (6 prototypes), 1 of which failed and not included, another of which i am still working on and not online yet (procrastinating by blogging rather than finishing it)

    Seems prototyping is the popular thing to do at the…

  • capture of iPhone gameplay of my lattest game, Bikini Beach Volleybal

  • Bit of a slow week, finished 'chico of the dead' (once it is available in the app store i get to start promoting it, fun) and during the recovery time after a big project, tidied up some randoms bits of tech, simplified renderer, and added…

  • Still a bit to go but finishing up the chico of the dead game, about a week left? event spent some time improving the quality of the first part of the game experence (added help)

Those are great David - Im really a fan of your work - the animations and quite a few of those models have on your site really have some attitude and personality about them.

Great Job [:)]

Hey, they are really good. Thanks for posting them.
They have more of a cartoon style then what I was trying for with the activity, but they are a good reference and show just how good a model can look on a low poly budget.

I?m too very impressed with the work on your site. Great stuff. :)
