Ludum Dare #19
Ok, I make it quick! This weekend was Ludum Dare 48h gamedev competition. This was the first time I used Unity3d instead of java and my beloved jMonkeyEngine. Actually I forgot to swap the programmer as well cause I made the same mistake: beginning too quick followed by struggling and
Shiva3D - How to deploy to Android
Well, actually I don’t have a clue about Shiva3D. But the promise to deploy on Android,IPhone,Linux,Win,Mac,Web,Webos for really not much money (170€ indi-license) forced me to have a look :D. After hours of downloading (I was not alone as it was just released)

devmania
Just arrived from mainz from attending devmania doing the overnight-contest with my globalgamejam-companion burak. This time we decided to use Unity3d instead of the beloved jMonkeyEngine.

miniLD#20 - greedy fishing
Last weekend it was miniLD-Time again. Although I didn’t had the complete weekend time I decided to take part. The theme was greed (or fishing) with the restriction that every gameobject might be used only once. This means you can’t just use e.g. two fishes that looks

jME2 meshAnimation
Ok, I finally made a version for jME2. To achieve that I also created a userfriendly way to create MeshAnimations programmatically and not only as import from ogre-files. Now you can create MeshAnimation keyframe-based on time,pose and weight like this: MeshAnimationWrapper manualAnimationWrapper = new MeshAnimationWrapper(face); manualAnimationWrapper.addPoseKeyFrame("MouthOpen&
