2012-01-29T11:44:00.000-08:00

This still in development? Yep, it is!!, and I am coming with a big update. Finally the AI stuff are here, I have developed A* Pathfinding, basically, the troop of soldiers take the shorter path across the AI nodes.
I have instantiated some walking dummies for apreciate the taken path, and that is all about AI right now.

In the other hand, I have implemented a debug console for command in real time. Now I can create things , reload the map and more.

Project ODG (WIP) - Week 04 : GUI & Construction of Towers

2012-01-16T13:31:00.001-08:00

Yep, that's right, I'm late, but remember, I still in exam seasson and today, I'm coming with a big update.

For this week I have been working in the feature relative to the construction of towers. As you can see in the video, It is a big improvement in the game. You have a area around the player where you can build the tower, when you build the tower, It is related immediatly with the player, getting the aura of the player color.

Furthermore I have developed a extra feature. I have started the implementation/design of the GUI (only available in single player mode), the game have a good look with this news.

Here you have the video of this week:

Next week more news!

Project ODG (WIP) - Week 01 : First features

2011-12-19T07:39:00.000-08:00

Inspired by Subvert Games and the pleasure that gives me see the making off of something, I have started a project with Unity3D and I will show progress each week as they have done with their game Blackreef Pirates.

I have been working a week on the project, and the truth is that it moves quite well, for this week have implemented the following functionality:

Character and camera control
Map loading and terrain mesh generation
Terrain texturing
Object loading

Some of these need to be polished, but I prefer to go ahead and have a playable project.

I leave you with the video of this first week:

Obviously, all the videos shown are only a WIP version of the game.
Bye ;)

My adventure with Flash and Actionscript

2011-12-18T07:40:00.000-08:00

Long time without news uh?, it is normal, between university, work and personal projects this has been a little lonely. Today I come with old and new stories, I will post the new storie in another entry but I want to dedicate this entry to my development adventure in Flash and Actionscript.

I spent a few months developing and selling flash games getting out two titles; Bubbles Pops and Cocomono both available in the GAMES section of this website long time ago.
I can say that this is a business and you can get some benefits developing flash games and selling them directly to the sponsors or through FGL portal but you should be very careful with what are you developing having intuition about what the sponsors are looking for.
I have published the games under the name Alienline Softworks, this going to be the company name that I going to use to publish all my semi/professional projects.

Here are videos of both games:

Bubbles Pop

Cocomono

I hope you like it

2011-06-21T07:37:00.000-07:00

Lately I´ve been in charge of some developments with the Kinect device of Microsoft for CanaryWeb company. You can see some progress in the next video.

Proyecto CanaryWeb - Kinect from CanaryWeb SL on Vimeo.
The development was carried out using the library OpenNI, C # and ActionScript and it is being a good excuse to improve my development in both languages.
