This is the GLOB engine that I submitted a couple weeks ago that helps simplify the process of creating 2D games. Loading images and sound effects, and creating animations and particle effects can all be done with a few lines of code. I finally managed to get around working on my GLOB engine. I didn't mean to let it go so long without an update. But, I organized everything so that it should be easier to use. I've also worked on the sound functions so that they are similar to the rest of the engine. I added some new cool new features as well, including screen transitions (such as fading out), and taking a screen shot of the current screen. There is also a template .cpp, .h, and project files, so you don't have to worry about linking all the stuff. This is a development version (lots of error checking). Hopefully, I'll post a release version that removes a lot of the nonessential stuff. Note: this program requires OpenGL (www.opengl.org) and Microsoft DirectX.

GLOB (OpenGL object) 2D engine. This is my first release of my GLOB engine, which is an attempt to simplify creating 2D games with OpenGL. The program models some of the functionality of GLUT (like naming certain functions whatever you want), but is much more geared toward 2D game development. Since someone's already working on a DirectX one (MasterX by Jared Bruni), I decided I would try and work on one myself. This is in a pretty early stage (I've worked about two days on it), but so far, you can load in bitmaps and create GLOBs (which can perform animations and are the main part of the engine). The program sets up a bunch of default stuff so you don't need to worry about it (fullscreen, double buffering, orthographic projection, etc.). Included is a small demo that shows how to set up a quick, simple animation (loading in all the frames, drawing it and animating it took about five lines of code!). And please, if have ANYTHING to say about it (questions, comments, suggestions, or bug reports), let me know. It'll make development a lot quicker and easier.

This is a very early stage of a graphical rogue-like game. (If you are unfamiliar with rogue-likes, they are the ancestors of the Diablo series, and came out about 25 years ago). So far, there's basic character creation, and an isometric view. The program supports multiple tile layers, as well as fringe layers (transition from one tile type to another). Initial support for spells, items, monsters, and skills is also there.

This is a little game inspired by the old Atari 2600 game "Combat." Its basically complete, except a little polishing (mostly a menu, and better AI). You control a tank, and attempt to destroy the computer's tank. There are several hazards (such as flame throwers and mines), terrain types (such as water and grass), as well as some simple power-ups. Several pre-made arenas are included, or you can try and make your own (very crude, but simple). Unfortunately, I had to shrink all the images down in order to upload this, so everything looks a little grainy.

To demonstrate how to create a function with a variable number of parameters, similar to the printf function. *Just fixed this, so now you can actually read it.

This program loads bitmaps as frames of animations. Then, you can play back the frames. The program lets you add frames, clear all the frames, play the animation, and stop the animation. You can also adjust the speed at which the animation is played. Its just a simple tool I wrote in a couple hours that I use to view the animations I intend to use in some of my other programs. Its also a good learning tool, since I've got a menu, as well as buttons and a dialog box. The program works, but there are currently very few options.
