Although I’m still working on a ludumdare Exploration-Level I entered the Assemblee-Compo. It is a very interesting one cause it is split up into two parts. Part one was especially for graphic gurus and componists to create content that should be used for part 2 to create a game

Well, started in miniLD13 I currently work on a simple shoot ‘em up spaceship shooter. For that I let me more time in order to build more reusable code. I see this more as a prototype implementation for my own game framework based on jMonkeyEngine and blender. Here a first
Hehe,…last weekend I decided to take part at the miniLD#13 with Theme:Educational! Quite hard. Actually I found out that I really don’t know any stuff you could teach it in a game!? Well nilsf the host told we might go in the direction of gallileo or

Was a bit silent the last time here and like the tech-demos before I didn’t finish the tank game as well. Actually I got started to test how to use blender more or less as a level-editor that pass some external data to jME via the hottbj-exporter. With that
Currently I’m looking a bit deeper into the JavaGamingNetwork (JGN) and started for that a little Tank Multiplayer-Demo. The animations no so fluent right now but that is not the main point for the moment. Here a screenshot: Looks a bit like all three are the same screenshots, but
Ok…let’s give it a try. Again a compo. Task is to create a strategy game in monochrom playing in the 20s. Strategy game. This is not easy. After think quite a while I’m sure it will be hard to keep the user understand what’s all about
I just finished writing my last post (on sunday) when I thought to have a look at javagaming.org . Last time I was there, they thought about organizing a compo so I thought about getting some infos about it. Well,..the first post I saw was “Compo started”…. The period:
