Title: What's the Best Thing
Post by: Clyde on September 08, 2007
Hiya,

Whats the best thing that you've ever done / are most proud of, past or present?
Maybe it's a thing you've coded or you've done in real life. Perhaps there's more than one.

One of the things that Im most proud of is making my first ever intro. It was a Blitz Basic 2D affair, but sadly I no longer have the code for it, but it made me real excited about trying other stuff.

Cheers and take care,
Clyde.

For me it was probably this one; http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=29681 (http://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=29681)
I don't think I have ever got close to matching it since.
I don't think I ever will either :)

Probably not the best I coded but definately something special for me, was my first
real scene release on the amiga. It was a bbs-tro for our groups (bizarre arts) bbs.

Main reason I am proud of it - because I did all by myself : code, gfx, tune.

If you still own an amiga / emulator - dl it here :

Song attached. I used Nirvana's bassline from the tune "Come as you are" ;-)

Coding wise, probably dart the yabasic racing game. Was a real challenge getting it running as well as it was but in the end it all came together quite nicely. And is probably about the only thing I've really finished to date anyway.

I remember when you announced that you were making a Wipeout type game in Yabasic, to be honest I didn't believe you at first!

Your F1 game was a nice piece of work too.

yeah, that was starting to take shape but I moved onto coding on the PC before it was finished :(

Probably this

It got universally panned, but mostly that was because Tony Hawk 2 was about to come out.  The game was actually pretty playable, and it had a lot of really good content in it.

The coolest thing I have programmed has to be my Barcode Battler website.

There's nothing else like it!
