What are you working on at the moment?

Very Enigmatic Ferris!

I'm working on something too as you can see from the screen shot

[Shockwave]

Update..

So you can at least see that there is progress.

[ferris]

Looking smooth Nice to see the progress.

[benny!]

Yeah, looks already really kewl...

Got PureBasic finally working on an Amiga (well, WinUAE to be honest...). Prepare for a fine(?) Amiga craptro sometime soon!

Yeehaw. Cool to see that PureBasic still supports the Amiga platform.

@Benny, I think they still offer the Amiga version of PB but it's no longer updated like the other platforms. Probably due to it adding things like orge as a 3d engine and other things that just couldnt be added to the amiga version I expect.

Back on topic abit, while my demo ideas are still milling around and my shader stuff needs me to spend some time trying things out, I have made a start on a game. Went for doing something fairly simple so that I can get back into the swing of coding in bmax using the modules that came with it. So here's a screenshot very early WIP but I think you can guess what its based on

Yeah, good old Spaceinvaders. Always nice!

I've just noticed an email from the English department reqesting a game / program / resource be made for them, after seeing the 2 maths programs I've been working on.

After working on a basic premise, I'll re-work my old "Maths Invaders" game to become "Spelling Invaders". This learning game will be coded in Flash, but I'm not sure how long it will take.

It won't quite play like the classic Space Invaders, but kids of this day won't care, which is unfortunate.

Sounds like Z-Type.

Yeah, I know this one. NIcely done, esp. considering that this is pure javascript/canvas.

Latest progress..

Good news is that I only have a couple of layout bugs to fix in this template and then I can begin to construct the other pages

Looking forward to dropping Benny's cool flash banner in there!

[padman]

Woot! That's really looking awesome! (And a there's a great selection of topics too... )

[Shockwave]

Yeah, it brings the 40 latest posts which is much better than the latest 10, thinking that having coding topics on the front page will help the SEO of the site and it's useful too

This is really going to kick ass when we have Benny's flash banner in there!

The only part where I've had to compromise a little is on the showcase random selection - I wanted to use Mooflow but it fucked up on Firefox and didn't look right on my android too so I've taken a more simple approach to it but it still looks a lot better than the current one

[Shockwave]

Thanks to Benny, I have another update for you

[TinDragon]

Oh, oldskool starfield moving in that banner ?
Looking good anyway

[Shockwave]

Yep, Benny made a 3D starfield with a cool cross fading text line

[benny!]

Yeah, that looks awesome. Really looking forward if that frontpage goes live.

[hellfire]

Looks so easy but was a bit of pain actually.

[Shockwave]

Your 4D space model?

That looks really cool!  I'd love to see a moving version of it
