Id Buy it :D im a programer to i make 2D games thou was this Super hard because of 3D?

[GameMakerTutorials2]

graphically you are far better than me. but as far as the programming goes its very simple.

@GameMakerTutorials2

Says the game named "Game Maker tutorials" with no videos.

Game maker is known as the wannabe game makers toy, even if you use GML, it's still extremely lame.

hi

is 2.5D supposed to be 3D with some billboarding ??

[Riveascor]

holy shit, this is seriously incredible.....

So I just started coding about a month ago and have just been doing problems on Project Euler . net, so I'm not sure how far I am in programming. But how long do you think it would be before I could get to this level of programming?

[rugt0r]

@Riveascor thanks :) It's hard to say... I've been programming for years, since I was about 12. But a friend who worked on the same project didn't have as much experience. A lot of it depends on the language you're using. This game was written in C++ which has a lot of "features" that can make things tricky. It would have been easier for us to use C# and XNA or something like that. Is game development what you're aiming for?

@rugt0r

Wow, yeah I'm using c++ as well and I really like it so far. It's not too high or low of a level abstraction. Feels just right for me. Yeah one of my dreams would be to make addictive games that don't promote aggressiveness. I want to make something (probably be part of something) that is as addictive as Call of Duty Black ops but doesn't make kids aggresive. Or make something similar to Shadow of the Colossus/ICO

[JervicReyes]

sooo cool!!

[rugt0r]

@Agardion Yeah, C++, Direct3D and HLSL

[RickvandeS]

A really cool concept, I'm also working on a 2.5D game at school, this is really inspiring. The only thing you can do to make it more alive is adding animated background features, altough this is a very relaxed game, I think it will be less boring when there are moving things, the player should have the feeling there is a busy world with lots of life back there.

This is incredible! Good work!
