LÖVE

I'm working on a template that includes a set of libraries that act as a foundation from which a game can be built from.

I'm considering calling it FoundationsPack. It will include a modules folder containing libs and utils in the form of lua files as well as a main.lua that has been preconfigured to use the aforementioned libs and utils for maximum convenience. Stay tuned, I'll post v1.0 in Projects & Demos soon.

Edit: here it is! http://love2d.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=79113

Here's an update on how slow my progress is.



Next up, maybe actual graphics...

It looks amazing, the pathfinding is so smooth that it looks like you had the routes preprogrammed, also it's rather fast so sometimes it wasn't even noticeable, it seemed like he was teleporting, otherwise... AMAZING

Thanks man, that's very encouraging.

added background, modified UI, and something big is comming.

Taking a slight break from my RPG I got the idea in my head that I wanted to create a platformer using Bump. So for the past few hours I've been working on this...



I actually coded it inside a blank state in my already existent RPG project to save myself time. Anyways, you can kind of guess what I'm trying to emulate here.

It's still a little buggy with the block picking up and replacing and I only just noticed when I started recording that some blocks weren't being marked as blocks. Either way, it works pretty nicely right now. Bump really made it easy to do too.

Also, you'll notice I wrote an algorithm for minimizing the number of collision boxes by finding large connected groups of like tiles and turning them into a single block instead. (Only for tiles that won't ever change of course.) This was really fun. I had to write it for my map creation in my RPG when I discovered that the world map ended up using so much memory for collisions that the sheer amount of garbage caused Löve to crash. So instead of finding a new collision system, I wrote something I never thought I could.

The physics needs work. I basically took a good look at how it was done in the Bump example. Need to implement more precise platforming controls. Especially for jump height.

Gonna have to implement moving platforms and enemies you can stand on and pick up too.

Oh, by the way, this video is available in 16:10 4K. (Which is the resolution of my display)

Simple game for android

Translated title, and got proofread ingame scripts.

New key assignment menu for Bandana:

Some signs of life emerge!



No collision detection for the NPCs yet, nor is there interaction. But they have sprites and move randomly. (Scripting will come in time)
