Pardon me as I try and post this topic without a preview feature, and edit the markdown/bbc code as needed.

I've been working on an open source block building game since January, "inspired" by the game Blockland but most people might compare it to Roblox.

It prioritizes easy modability and building. …

The Orx community is pleased to announce the 1.14 release. This marks the 14th yearly major release since 1.0 in 2009. 
There are quite a few changes in this release. Here are some highlights:

• Castor3D now uses a reversed Z buffer.
• Drastically improved overlays preparation and rende…

You may want to look around for existing art first, time is a very scarce resource. Building on top of something that exists already may be a better direction.

Hello, everyone!

A new Forward Only release happened, with an episode-crossover with SCP Foundation!

I'm happy to announce the release of Castor3D, version 0.12.0

Castor3D is a 3D engine written in C++ 17.
It works on Windows and Linux.
It relies on Vulkan as a rendering API, and uses Ashes to extend this support to Direct3D 11 and OpenGL.

Some of the changes:

• Now using RenderGraph to build a frame gra…

C libraries are old but useful for 2D games.

True. Much of the C libraries have been matured, even perfected, so no need to “reinvent the wheel”.  Many people discover that a lot of frameworks, engines, middleware, and tools have a lot of C at least embedded in the source. Some are …

When I started game engine development, many thought it was impossible for one person to build a game engine. But I proved that I could build a game engine with an old computer without a budget. Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done.

small3d is a small, cross-platform 3D game development library I have put together and have been maintaining over the past few years.

Hi all,

In short Crowd Control is a Trading Card Game on a blockchain. This allows you to transfer cards between players, a feature that is gone for Hearthstone or Magic Arena, which is very sad, because this is a very great feature of the real Magic the Gathering as it brings the community together…

pygame 2.0, the most popular game library for python has been released on its 20th birthday.

What's the best feature of pygame 2? Maybe it's "backwards compatibility". For many, many apps pygame 2 is backwards compatible. Have an pygame app from the year 2000? It will probably work. We still have so…

HTC Vive (Pro) & Valve Index users can now experiment with positional tracking with a fully open source stack, thanks to the implementation of a libsurvive driver in Monado, the OpenXR runtime for Linux.

The recent improvements in Monado including out of process compositing and multi layer rendering released with v0.2 prepared the requirements to implement OpenXR's XR_EXTX_overlay extension and multi application support, which are both now available!

With the excellent (online) edition of Augmented World Expo 2020 in full swing this week, what better time to announce version 0.2 of the Monado OpenXR runtime for Linux! It's been a very busy three months since the last Monado developer update and there are a number of exciting developments to sha…

Version 1.11 of the Orx Portable Game Engine has been released. This marks the 11th yearly major release since 1.0 in 2009.

Some of the more notable features of the release are:

• Project build tool "Init” now supports the creation of orx/Scroll, Dear ImGui and orxArchive based projects
• Support changes …

Another month has flown by, and this one has turned out to be much more exciting than I ever anticipated! Primarily this is due to me making a surprise decision to try and apply for a grant to help get this project funded. This prompted a lot of changes, which I'll talk about today.

If you're new to…

Hi,

A little update on this, there are new features. As a reminder, the format's SDK is a dependency-free, single C/C++ header file, has a Blender exporter and included in Assimp too (with limited support unfortunately).

The Model 3D format now can efficiently store:

I think it's time for another quick update on the game! There isn't all that much to go through, as I've been rather occupied with other matters, such as university exams. Besides that I've also been struggling with figuring out the core story, setting, and direction I want the game to go in.

In any…

Foreword

Hello everyone! I'm rather new here so I'm sort of nervous to be posting this (this is my first thread!) but recently there's this new open source project whose Discord I’ve been active on and it seems r…

It has been a while since I last wrote an update. It's also now been a year since I first started to work on it! I think it's about high time I talked about what's been happening, and what I plan to happen in the near future, too.

Since my last update I have not had a lot of time to work o…

Hi,
I have created a basic debug viewer for Bullet while working on my game engine.
It uses three.js to render debug lines, and communicates to the application (i.e. server) via web socket.

Included in the repo is some reference code for creating the server (…

Thanks for the suggestion. Btw. I'm now over 800 entries.

It's been two months now since I started to do daily game development streams. I've been trying my best, but it is time for this to come to a close. In this article I'll talk about the various things that happened, why I'm stopping, and the future of the Leaf game. Strap in!

Hi, I collected technical infos about more than 500 open source games and put them in a Github repository (game entries in text format). A dynamic HTML table of the entries is created from the data. It allows searching and sorting. For all the games there is a link to the homepage, where to ob…

This weekly summary of daily progress would normally be very short, as I fell ill and had to sit out a few days of development as a result. I'm writing this from bed at the moment, though I'm already feeling a lot better. In any case, this week I …

In this week of daily game development, I worked on two larger features. The first is a pathfinding, so that NPCs, and the player character, can move to designated positions in the map. That'll largely be useful for cutscenes and making NPCs move …

alvaro, thanks! that's exactly what I needed ~ I've started working on my research now and also found out about the Komodo MCTS chess engine

again thanks a ton

And another week of daily gamedev gone by. The improvements implemented in the last week are not too exciting visually. I finally implemented a proper world storage format, including for the new quest system, as well as save states for the whole s…

That didn't feel as long as it was. A month ago I promised to do daily streams of game development. So far I've held true to that. I'm sure I won't be able to hold that true forever, but I'll try to keep going for as long as I can. In this one mon…

This week the weather has been much more amenable, but unfortunately not too much visible progress has been made. I rewrote some engine internals to allow a much better representation of GL uniform buffer objects. Moving platforms and simple elevators were also added, which proved much more frus…

This week central Europe was a hellfire, and the resulting heat did not help with productivity. Regardless, the daily development streams at least continued. Newly added to the engine are horizontal slopes and a lighting system. I'm working on a n…

To get back on topic I don't think I know everything about ECS but to answer the poster of the topic the "most important" question he needed(I believe) I say "thumbs up" for a job well done on learning ECS. You might know more about the topic, but it was a good effort, any way...to answer the que…

It's been a week of daily game development streams, and the project is now about back to where it used to be before I started redoing large parts of it last Monday. There's still a lot left to fix and smoothen out, but so far the progress has been…

Starting tomorrow I will be doing daily live game development streams for my current game project, Leaf. The streams will happen from 20:00 to 22:00 CEST, at https://stream.shinmera.com. There's also a short summary and countdown page here.

The streams will first primarily focus on rewr…

I think the DOS style assembly part would scare away most of the non-programmers. Game makers are supposed to target people who cannot make games on their own and therefore accept certain limitations to what can be made. You can either make it more appealing to beginners using …

I've been looking into server hosting for the game server, and since Windows Server does cost a bit to lease and also fires up a bunch of services that I don't need at all I've been looking into Linux.
