Game Engine, Lua, Box2D and other things

Hi there, it have been a long time, I apologize... Well as You can imagine the game engine progressed a lot, well YOU'RE WRONG! I started it over again (this is the last time, I promise) and I did it like pi times better! I rewrote how the depth is handled, added Lua support and added Box2D for physics and better collisions. But before talking about the new engine I need to say that someone joined the team, even is he's not always active :P, he participates in the game design, the programming...

Jump'n'Run

What's up!? It has benn a while since my last post, but I'm still here, and I'm still programming! I really had no time to work on Kill da Ducks as I was working on a University project with a friend. We put a lot of effort on it and did new things we never did before like physics (realistic one) behaviour. We used the verlet integration to solve vertex movement and using rigid and elastic (more like springs) constraints we were able to create polygons. The using the SAT theorem we detected collisions...

Some Verlet

Working with my friend in the game engine I talked last post, we got something really nice and fun using Verlet integration. He wrote that part of the code and I added the display with OpenGL, I also created a cloth using constarint and mapped a texture on it. The game engine is going well, even if we already have a working collision system and some basics physics that only works with AABB (non rotaed rectangles), integrating something better could be cool. Weeks ago I implemented a SAT collision...

Working on a Game Engine

Well, things got serious and I started to work in a game engine together with a friend. The whole thing is getting better and better with time. The project is being written in C++ using SFML 2 (as I did for my other games like Grav and Kill da ducks). As I'm working with that GameEngine I'm not going to improove Kill da Ducks Engine as I will be using the one I'm doing now. For now It doesn't have many features but it works right. Currently we are working with Configuration files alowwing us to...
