I like it, but am I the only one who sees stock video superimposed onto a static image of a DS?

[GoodbyeGalaxyGames]

I recorded the video from a emulator. I then put it over a image of a Nintendo DS, to make it extra clear that it runs on a Nintendo DS.

Otherwise a lot of fanboys might say the PS3 or Xbox has waaay better graphics, and the video is stupid.

I also think it speaks more to the imagination this way.

The Engine is real. And the game based on it (called Flipper) soon gets released for DSi-ware.

So if it's not opensource, are you thinking of licencing it, or is it done "just for fun"?

[GoodbyeGalaxyGames]

Its not open-source because its build upon the official SDK (which costs a considerable amount of money, so I can assure you its more than fun).

I build the engine for my own game; Flipper!. Because of that I build the toolset with my game in mind. So I would have to do some considerable work on the tools before it would be good enough to use for any kind of project.

Besides that, I dont have the resources to offer support for companies that would buy a license.

looks prommessing. do you release it as opensource?

[GoodbyeGalaxyGames]

no, it's build upon the official SDK.

Why dont you guys try making a DS physics engine?

[Protector0ne]

Alright, this is awesome. I've been thinking of and experimenting with this sort of 'digging' in games for a long time, but to see it running on a DS is not something I was expecting!

you could make it so you can insert models via an sd card :D
