SFML projects / [WIP] Antarctica
« on: October 29, 2013, 10:23:43 pm »
Hi SFML community.
I'd like to present to you the early WIP of Antarctica, a tribute to the platformers of old.
Been in development for a couple of days, Antarctica has nothing fancy to show yet but I intend to update the binary and this topic as soon as any progress is made.
Using this http://www.wixnet.se/bin/win64/launcher.exe you will always get the latest release of the game to try out for yourself.
Update
I have received reports that the launcher.exe might be flagged as a trojan and at the moment you can bypass the autoupdating function in the launcher by downloading the game client here: http://www.wixnet.se/bin/win64/game.exe
So what is this game about? Ever played Metroid? Then you get the idea!
The game begins with the first antarctic expedition and the fact that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremophiles were harvested and had their DNA extracted for the good of mankind. But as usual something goes wrong and I'll let you guess twice who will be responsible for the cleaning process...
What is implemented
Crosscompilation over Linux and Windows using the same source (only 64bit windows binares are maintained at the moment)
Basic Box2D implementation
Basic World and Zone implementation
Collectible items with cause and effect (doublejump and gravity alterator present in Proof of Concept)
Weapons (handgun, machinegun, shotgun)
Fragmentation- and particlesystem randomness
Collision filtering
Able to fire in eight directions
Go from Box2D 2.2.1 to 2.3.0
What's next
Weapons (handgun, machinegun, shotgun)
Update the fragmentation- and particlesystem with lifetime and more randomness
Collision filtering
Able to fire in eight directions
Go from Box2D 2.2.1 to 2.3.0
Enemies (placeholders with cause and effect)
UI Profiler
Protagonist skills (Crawling, Walljumping, climbing ledges)
What's distant
Finetune controls
User Interface
Artificial Intelligence
Tools to build the environment and assets
Crowdfunding
Known bugs
Box2D highspeed body bounce
Switching weapon does not reset rate of fire correctly
ballistic spread does not work properly on handgun and machinegun
