Red Roids updates

Got around to coding on my game Red Roids again. Here are some screenshots of the updates:

redroids-121105-1.png redroids-121105-2.png redroids-121105-3.png

  • Added aim sight (the two yellow stripes in front of ship)
  • Added ship health display for self and target (Green to yellow to red to gone)
  • Added parallax star field background
  • Ships get damage from bumping into each other (with particle effects)
  • Ships spawn in smaller groups
  • A new game begins after a team has won (Fleet size grows for every new game)
  • The zoom-view is now a toggle and is adjusted to always show all the ships
  • New and shiny main menu which can be navigated by either mouse or keyboard

The source code is available on github and should be compilable on any platform supported by SDL: github.com/nailbar/Red-Roids

Random Terrain (HTML5)

I finally learned how plasma fractals work. Now I can do this:

Another HTML5 experiment

Going further with the Neural Network thingy I now made a simple self-driving race simulator where the cars practice on their own behalf and then race against each other.

Simple Jet model

A rather quick sketch modeled rather quickly in Wings3D. Yay. Moving on...

Edit: Added another quickie.

HTML5 testing

Evolving bugs
Played with what I think is neurological networks (it's my first try so don't judge me :-P) and made a small simulation of bugs looking for food. There's no learning going on, but an evolutionary process using cloning and mutation is used to make them better.

History API
Made a small page to test the History API in HTML5:

Sofia touches a hoof fungus

Here are some pictures of Sofia as she finds out the hoof fungus is hard and not squishy other mushrooms:

MyPaint

Practicing drawing in MyPaint using a tablet. These two turned out quite nicely.

Random pics

Another random assortment of pics. We brought Iivari out in the sun for the first time since we moved here in February. A hornet was chewing on the swing set...
