Hi.
I started today to make a 4kb remake of Znax ( have a look at the arcade section ) ;)
Coded in C/C++ using OpenGL. I didn't make it that far today - I wanted to add some
scoring mechanism but I have certain problems with Crinkler and the vsprintf
command.
Nevertheless, not quite sure if I continue it if I cannot fix the mentioned problem. So far
you can not even play this game. There is just an intro screen and the game field itself
(ref. screenies).
Controls ( so far ) :
[ESCAPE] exits the game in every state
[SPACE] starts the game in intro screen
[CURSOR] move around on the playing field
No selecting or game logic implented yet - sorry ...
You can download it, if you want (1.647 bytes without music) ...

Any bug-reports, comments welcome ...

cool, its so tiny!
hope you get it all worked out and definitly worth while :goodpost:
-
Thanks nino. Will see how things evolve. If I have some time tomorrow - I will
try to build in at least some game logic ... will see ::)
-
Looks so cool it would melt in the fridge :) Pleas continue mate!
-
I like the 3D blocks benny! Looks very nice :)
If you are feeling lazy I could always give you my Javascript code for checking the tile selections, but then again that might be taking the fun out of it. I look forward to playing it.

New version online ( same link / see first post ) !
Added
+ game logic
ToDo
+ scoring system
+ instruction / credit text + text-routine
+ game-over sequence
+ proper design
+ sound
Not so many bytes left ... file is now 2.241 bytes - but rather un-optimized.
Maybe I have some more time next week ... ::)
-
wow you work quick very nice progress have some K+!
-
Wow, had a huge crash there... But I have been hacking around in memory a bit.
-
Ran fine that time, very good work, I never heard any sound here though. You must really love that game Benny!

@SW:
Ooops ... sorry to hear that. Hope it isnt directly caused by my game.
@all:
Does anyone else have problems / crashes running my game ?
-
the intro runs really slow here although i think its my gfx the game runs smooth though. i also never heard any sound.
-
Runs fine, but no sound here either.
-
@ninogenio:
about the speed - no idea. actually it is some simple opengl stuff. which
gfx card do you have ...
@ninogenio+zawran:
about the sound - it has still to be implemented. It's on the ToDo list ...
maybe in the middle of this week I have some spare time to work on it
again - will see.
but thanks a lot for testing !!!

This wouldent work for me. When I ran it a grey bar appeared at the top of the screen, then nothing happened for ages. Task manager showed no Znax application running, so I had to shut down the process. Its a shame, cos I want to play this :'(
-
@mike_g:
Strange. Someone else has the same problems ? I will have a look on it, mate.
Thanks for the bug report !!!

Hi.
I added now some tune to the game. Nevertheless, I am feeling right now that
I need to learn more about shaders and OpenGL in general. So, I decided to release
the game as it is now. Have a look to the final release info right here :
http://dbfinteractive.com/index.php?topic=1791.0 (http://dbfinteractive.com/index.php?topic=1791.0)
Actually, I wanted to implent some more gfx because there are still some bytes left ...
but well ... I feel like I need to aim for other things right now 8)
Hope it will run on the majority of cpu's and configurations...

Have a look at the official release - I included now a safer version. Maybe you want
to try this !? Would be interesting to know if this would work for you. Please let me
know !?
