What's everyone working on? (tigsource inspired)

[kikito]

I've been working on Luv.js for a couple weeks now.

I am working on a way too ambitious project which I will never finish.

Our project is coming along nicely.

(That's 42 FPS on a netbook)


We've got working physics, some graphics and particles, asteroids which break apart when damaged, ships with multiple turrets, and AI-controlled skirmishers. It doesn't yet have sound, but play-testers are making their own space-battle noises (a promising sign!). Next milestone is basic multiplayer.

Also, 969th post, whoo!

An asteroids clone...

I'm working on a generic (not format or software dependent) tilemap library. It's loosely based on Flashpunk's Tilemap class. Not sure if I'll release it though - is there a demand for such a thing?

I really love all the screenshots you're posting! Great art style!

Splitscreen asteroids?! Oh my god, this is like a child-dream come true for me!
Finish it, finish it, finish it!!

Care to elaborate how you achieved the split-screen effect? I know you can do "cameras" in löve, but how do you clip the drawing to a certain area of the screen?

You can use scissors.

Misha's got it right, I use sissor, but to elaborate like you've asked;

There is an object for each player, and with that there is a window object that defines the x,y,w,h of each player. Using those variables, I have all my other functions work off of those numbers instead of the love.graphics.get[Height|Width].

Currently the game is playable as a free for all shooter. It may gain some funding soon for part time development instead of just my free time.
