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

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've been making AI for my game for over a month. It was a long and difficult process, I even lost several kilograms. The result is on the GIF. In my opinion it turned out very well, although not perfect

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!)

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

Now the tank turret rotates realistically - at different speeds, depending on the movement of the tank. I tried to do this before, but it turned out very poorly and strange things happened

(Tank turning speed increased by ~4 times)

Now it's very easy to create an animation from a sprite sheet (texture atlas) in my engine! Image credits: - @MatheusBarbiot_ - @Raid_BugRepellent - @ZenOfficial

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Rotation of two different types of tanks.

Next, I should improve their aiming, since at the moment tanks cannot hit a moving targets. Well, I think it won't be difficult to make smarter aiming. I hope
