Title: _Prot0 - 2d Engine
Post by: Nybble on May 16, 2012, 09:50:46 pm

Hello there every one,

I just wanted to share this with you, it is an engine I am working on right now, well actually I had worked on a very similar one before with SDL, but it was not nearly as good as this one is right now. I had to code everything from scratch after trying to switch from SDL to SFML and after getting a lot headaches I finally decided to just do it from scratch and I'm glad I did.

This is a simple 2d engine with basic collision detections ( bounding box, but I added my own things to make it really precise), tile maps, scrolling camera etc. Right now I'm in the process of creating enemy classes etc, I also use my own tile map editor, I will show a video of that soon, and I will be releasing the map editor + source code soon.

By the way, great job on such an awesome library Laurent.

Looks good so far, is the library open source?
Also, are you making an engine specifically for platformers?

It is generally for plat former but you can use it for more than that, I can easily make an rpg with no problem,  I will be releasing it when it is nearly complete, and when I get rid of most bugs ( soon ), I will be releasing the tile map editor first and it will be open source obviously.

There is a third video now, showing enemies at work.

Really, looks good.
Open source is better.
When you finish the project? You have any idea?

Goodbye!
