Is it just me, or did August just get blown out of the water? Anyways, I am *this* close (if you could see me, you'd see my index finger and thumb making a small gap to show how close) of finishing Part 4. All that is left is finishing the article's write-up and getting the code all nice and...

I have completed part 3 of my series on creating a simple 2d platform game. In part 3, I take you through on making our hero a bit more motivated in the game, in other words, animate him.

I Can Has Platformer Part 2, ITS COMMING! →

I can't really believe that it is already a new year. A lot of things have been going on, and things are starting to calm back down. First off, earlier this month, I posted my first article of a series to Sgt. Conker's website. The series will explain on how to create a simple platformer game...

a new year begins... →

Man it has been a while... Games, moving, work, the list goes on, but I don't really want to blame them for my lack of effort. On that note, I have been getting back into XNA, and even have written an article for a new XNA site since Ziggy has been slacking in getting his site back up in working condition...

Duo Platformer Barrage, Other side of the Story... →

A new year, a new fire under the kettle. I haven't really been working on XNA since I posted my submission to DreamBuildPlay of '08. I took a nice vacation to Japan for 2.5 weeks, and caught up on some gaming that has been stacking up on me. Since the turn of this new year, I have been getting the itch...

Back in the XNA Saddle... →

The game is rather simple in nature, and I think it turned out pretty well. The play area has 4 colored bars that run right to left...
