I am developing my own game engine. Currently, I am adding a graphical user interface. Later, I plan to create games and applications using this engine. The screenshot shows two buttons and a text input field with their colliders (red rectangles)


In the development process, I am using the C# language and the MonoGame framework. I built the foundation for the engine with the help of information from the book MonoGame Mastery.

Note: I don't recommend MonoGame for beginners in game development because it requires good programming skills

First AI tests

At the moment, bots are like zombies - they follow the player and can avoid obstacles in their path, but they don’t always succeed

They are very stupid, but I will try to make them smart

Previously, bullets could ricochet an infinite number of times and it looked very strange, but now I have limited the number of ricochets and it looks more realistic

So I made a smart aiming of the tank turret at a moving target. This required a long mathematical formula, but it did not affect the optimization (I used 1500 tanks on one screen and there were no lags!)

Happy #WIPWednesday!

Are you working on a game?

Making some art?

Practicing a song?

Something else?

Tell us in the comments!

I decided to do a tank race to test the AI. Participants: 4 bots and me (gray tank)

I improved my old tank control code. It used to be 400+ lines, but now it's only 66. Only 66, Carl!

This is very cool, but while I was rewriting my code, many bugs appeared, for example, when I clicked on WASD, I controlled all the tanks at once (GIF)

I added a new type of tank to the game - self-propelled artillery. It does not have a turret and the rotation angle of the barrel is limited. It deals more damage per shot, but has low speed.

I also improved some parts of the game (see article)
