Update on the Android game
June 8, 2012 by ·
The idea of the game is like so.
Its war time. Our main character is a pigeon who has to complete missions that involve delivering messages. The pigeon will fly towards right side of the screen until it reaches the destination. In between there will be several obstacles like enemy pigeon, falcons/ hawks, anti aircraft attacks etc. The user has to control the pigeon to avoid getting touched by the obstacles.
Like I said in my previous post, the game will be using libgdx game framework. libgdx is an android game framework. First we got ourselves (my partner Ali and I), a copy of a game called Super Jumper made by the creator of libgdx. We modified it to move from bottom-up to left to right. For collision, we tried coding by ourselves. Then I found that there is a better alternative, Box2d. Box2d is a 2d physics engine which is available in different languages. [Read more…]
Working on an Android Game

Lately Ali and I are planning to work together on a simple free android game. We thought of working on IPhone first, considering the volume of users we could reach. But eventually, we could not resist the simpler Java language over the cryptic Objective C. We will think about porting to IPhone after the Android version actually gets completed.
We have found a very good game framework called Libgdx. The game will be a side scrolling, avoid the enemies style game that will use the touch and accelerometer together. [Read more…]

Flash Game for Flash Programming class

Yes, indeed..flash is dying. But this class was fun. Simon is a good teacher. Ali and I worked together on this project. This game uses OOP for all character and the game. Sorry, we didn’t put the Mute option for the sound. I did all the graphics in about 3 hours. Ali’s strong physics knowledge was very useful for the dynamics of the arrow in the game.

Simple Java Minesweeper Game.
September 12, 2011 by ·
This was the final assignment for JAC444 at Seneca. Its a simple minesweeper java applet game. Kyle and I worked on this together. I realized team of 2 is better than 1 or 2+. In pair programming, one of the programmer types the codes while the other look over his mistakes and makes sure they are working in right direction. Sort of like rally driving, one person drives while the other gives navigation information. This game could use some improvement for rendering.
