 Basically a 360x180 dump of where our users have recorded GPS coordinates for 'routes' they make up. Obviously almost everyone is in North America but you can see a couple other outlines.

lmao zebong posted:Me and two other friends have been working on an Android game for the last 5 weeks, and today we were finally able to upload our lite version to the market today. It's a puzzle game that has you using mirrors and prisms to bounce colored lasers around to hit the corresponding checkpoints. It would be great if anybody interested would download it and tell me what you think of it. It's called Refraction and are planning on releasing the paid version in a week. Here's the market link: http://ow.ly/4q1xl This looks awesome. I'll definitely try it out tonight. I hope to tackle something more game-like on my next project. I just started learning Java/Android development a week ago and have cobbled together a little something to put on the app store today. Since it's more of an aural experience, I'll include the (free) link to the app store http://tinyurl.com/3lfv54j as well as my underwhelming screen shot.  It's basically a garden variety shake the phone/push the button and sounds play application with a 70's kung fu movie theme. Nothing too fancy, but it was an excellent babby's first Android application.

I'm working on a first person RPG in the vein of the old Might and Magic/Wizardry games for Android: I made a raycaster for the graphics, in C with the NDK for performance. Why not use OpenGL? Idk, I just think raycasters are cool.

Seven Round Things posted:Any progress on this? I've always been bummed out by the lack of indie stealth games. Yes. I'd say I'm close to 35-40% done. The basic pieces are in place, but I need to refactor the mapping system and make the entities less stupid.  EDIT: I should say I'm aiming for release of a one level demo on May 15.

Cityscapes are so effing cool and they tie in perfectly to the cyberpunk (dream) lifestyle of the programmer I have no idea. Google image search for Future Cityscape, or something like that. It, along with the title, "Sneaking Mission" are placeholders.

 Compiler for a toy language I'm working on  It uses LLVM as the backend, in case you couldn't tell from the paths.At the moment it just has functions, print statements and return statements. I'm working on a bit of cleanup before I start adding more basic features like local variables. After that I'll start working on adding types, then function closures.

 I know it looks like rear end, but I finally completed what I consider the first version of my game. This first build includes basic functionality (basic world algorithm, character controller, adding/deleting cubes, loading/unloading chunks, "unlimited" world). Doesn't look like much, but when I started down this path I didn't have much 3d knowledge at all. I've been keeping my dev diary at http://dangerz.blogspot.com. Bunch of videos at http://www.youtube.com/user/dangerznet too. Next version is going to focus on world elements. Wildlife, plants, sky.. things of that nature. dangerz fucked around with this message at 17:36 on Apr 13, 2011 |

I wrote an ASP.NET handler that turns images into Excel files. The image-to-excel thing's been done before, but not in a way that lets you configure IIS to serve these instead of images    It downsamples the incoming images to 8bpp to speed things up and avoid running out of colours (Excel only gives you so many). It can also do some fancy stuff like scaling or loading a set from a zip file (in which case each image is a separate worksheet).

It uses this library, since it's what I'm using at work for some reporting output. Given more time I'd like to develop a version that builds the OOXML, though, since on larger images the library seems to produce invalid output. (This probably isn't a use they had in mind when they wrote it.)

I ask because I've built something like that library you're using. To stress-test both Excel and my stylesheet managing code I wrote a little demo that arranged cells as pixels like you did and drew an animated plasma. By figuring out how many pixels high the window will be it's possible to make a huge sequence of frames animate at a decent framerate by holding pageDn. You should try getting this to work with animated GIFs. Man, I really wish I had some screenshots of that old project.

I spent some time this afternoon playing with ANSI control codes. Have some plasma: The source (Java) is here. I feel a strong urge to write a game in this style.
