SpaceRaceWF
2 months ago

SpaceRaceWF, my lil' hobby project, early in development, made in old Visual Studio C# 2005. Editor will be integral part of the game from the very beginning. Here's a short showcase of the editor with simple racing logic ( and with placeholder graphics).


Quick recap:

SpaceRaceWF is planned to be casual space racing game with editor readily available from the very beginning.

It's developed in the oldest Visual Studio which I was able to run on modern Windows (VS2005), in old C# 2.0 and .NET Framework 2.0. Rendering is done through .NET Framework's built-in GDI+ and Windows Forms libraries (hence WF suffix in the game name).

Today, when AI is barking at us from every corner, we have high-level engines like Unity or UE, where even simple games are quite hogs due to engine overhead, I'm finding a little refuge in legacy & retro tech.

The game it's in very early stages of development, but one concept is there from the very beginning: editor. The editor will be part of the game (no separate executable) from earliest builds, so apart from playing premade tracks, creative players can make their own tracks, fast & easy. You can see concept of the editor (with placeholder graphics) in the animation.

Quick what's new:

- added waypoints (placeholder graphics)
- objects select/unselect, delete, move
- race mode, with very basic logic (countdown, pass waypoints in order, finish)

RTG Flashback - Abril 2021 #3 Un año después del comienzo de desarrollo de RTG, finalmente estaba creando niveles uno por uno. Este es otro nivel con bloques. Aquí, he usado espejos un poco para mostrar más mi algoritmo raytrace. https://store.steampowered.com/app/4032050/RTG

RTG Dev Flashback - May '21 Story level. No puzzle this time. Do you like?

Un nivel del relato, sin puzzle. ¿Os gusta? https://store.steampowered.com/app/4032050/RTG

RTG Flashback - Nov 2021 #2 Otro ejemplo de nivel con tirador de luces cargadas. Más o menos desde este nivel el juego se vuelve realmente desafiante (después de unos 20-30 niveles con puzzles bastante ligeros). https://store.steampowered.com/app/4032050/RTG/

RTG Dev Flashback - Nov '21 #2 Another level with "charged light shooters". I can say, that's around this level when game's difficulty spikes up. After 20-30 levels of quite light puzzles, the game will start challenging even skilled puzzle players.

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

RTG Flashback - Nov 2021 Tirador de las luces cargadas! Nueva mecánica añadida al juego un año y medio después del comienzo de desarrollo. Tenía mucha diversión con esa. Es un poco como jugar billar. https://store.steampowered.com/app/4032050/RTG/

RTG Flashback - Nov 2021 #3 Fin de 2021 fue muy productivo en desarrollo de RTG. Después de "tiradores de luces", implementé tb "inversores de gravedad". Aquí está una animación de esa funcionalidad. Este es sólo nivel de prueba. https://store.steampowered.com/app/4032050/RTG

The Knightling launches on August 28! Wishlist it now so you don't miss out: https://bit.ly/KnightlingSteam

To celebrate the game's impending release, we've added The Knightling Pack and The Knightling Community Pack back to the Shop!

In my current game I'm using my own engine. Ray-tracer for rendering is written in C++, it's not using any GPU acceleration, nor any 3rd part library. Editor & game logic are written in C#, using .NET Framework. #Devruary
