Neox - Preview

NOTE: The mapeditting is not part of the game. I'm just made the video to show off the in-game mapeditting ability I've coded. Makes development quick and easy.

A preview of my project I'm coding in C# and XNA. If you're interested in my progress you can always visit:

It's a sort of platform-RPG I'm designing as I go. I haven't revealed a lot of the plot or the game-design at all, because it has yet to be decided. I have my ideas, but we'll see how it will evolve.

By the way, i have a quick question. How do you get the background to "scroll", or what to say? When you walk forward or up/down etc your background changes and new objects come up?

And also, when you move your character to the right/left it changes animation.

Is it any specific areas i should look towards in the future if i want to do something simular? (Scrolling background and changed animation depending on what angle).

Hope you could answer it (sorry for swedish at my last post).

Regards

Instead of replying here, because it'd take quite som explaining, I'll instead tell you that I'm thinking of remaking my homepage to be all about programming in the future, which means I'll be able to write you an article explaining the mechanics behind game-design that I use. It's not up yet though, I'll send you a PM when it is - or subscribe and you'll know. No worries about the Swedish.

Väldigt bra gjort, håller själv på med C# och börjat kika närmare på XNA. Lite för svårt för mig just nu dock, ska läsa på lite mer om klasser och dylikt och kanske göra ett litet textbaserat RPG.

Tack för videon!

Glad I could help inspire, starting off with something text-based is a good way of getting the feel for a language, it was how I started programming many years ago in BASIC, making text-based adventures.

just wondering if you created the map editor tool in xna?

[silverljus]

Yes, made in XNA. :)

I wish I could me things like that...

I'm reading a C++ book and I like making games, but I can't use programming to make them yet...

Looks great!

I'd like to know how you made the ingame editor...I am i need of just something like that instead of having to type endless matrices....which is extremely boring

Thank you! Glad you like i, check "Neox - Demo" out if you haven't already, it's a bit more updated.
