A small game coding example / tutorial

[polylux]

Hey everyone,

long time no post from me. I have recently nearly-finished my lil side project of a blog. To add life to it, I wrote an article about a mini game that I did a while ago explaining impl aspects and how everything plays together. Source code avail of course. Would be happy if it's of help for beginners.

Cheers,

@mod, please move if wrong forum, thanks

Thanks, nice simple game :-) If you want I can also mention it on front-page.

[polylux]

I'd be flattered!

Okey dokey should show up as soon as all the browser and webserver caches can be persuaded. If you want any changes in text or image just PM me!

[polylux]

Awesome, thanks!

When can we try the binary?

[polylux]

did you fail to compile it? can get you a binary too. what's your platform?

[mant]

Well I think I want to download it instead of compiling.

[polylux]

fair enough. i assume you use windows?

[mant]

I use Linux (with a Windows OS partition so I can use sometimes).

[polylux]

ah, easy then. what's your distro? I'll get you an archlinux compile meanwhile. if you have irrlicht/cAudio installed, you should be able to compile it in no time.

[mant]

I use Ubuntu 18.04. But I think you should make a release for people to try the project quickly.
It entertains more so people can get excited to deep dive into your post.

I have problems compiling cAudio.
Which version did you use?

[polylux]

I'll have a binary out in a little. Been a bit busy these days.

[polylux]

Done. Find the precompiled version in the article.
@AReichl: where are you stuck? what's your OS? I use the current version referenced at the very bottom of the article.
