Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Okay so I haven’t been doing anything nearly as cool as flying through space to visit the distant remains of my dead home planet in the hopes of finding others of my kind, but… whatever. It’s been a Lazy Summer for me so far, so sue me for enjoying it. No […]

GC In-Depth Part 2: The In-Game Tutorial
April 12th, 2006 · No Comments · Software
Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Introduction So yesterday I started detailing the AI that’s going to kick the player’s ass (or at least let him win a few times) and today I’m going to look at another hurdle keeping me from a public demo, the in-game tutorial. The… you know Galaxy Conquest never sounds to me […]

GC In-Depth Part 1: The AI Behind GC
April 11th, 2006 · 1 Comment · Software
Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Introduction So for two hours this morning I was reading through the new TGB docs and getting GC up and running with Beta1.1. It gave me a little trouble at first – it would load the game but would keep displaying the TGB level builder instead of the main GC menu. […]

Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Well I had a good time in PA. We played original RISK, Clone Wars RISK and LoTR RISK along with Zombies and some Gamecube and shot some bb’s and pellets, watched some movies (Porky’s!!)… damn straight. Oh and the commercial shoot. That was cool too. I got there early no problem, […]

Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Well, adding wall detection for the missile attacks wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. In fact I still haven’t finished it. I’m having the missile collide with the edge of the system tile so that I can use the callback function to check for any walls in the […]

Missile Attack and Defense Walls

Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Last night I spent about 6 hours working on getting the special actions implemented. I was heading into some new territory with TGB (Torque Game Builder, previously known as T2D) code-wise so it was slow going in some spots, but I pushed through. By the end of the nite I had […]

Stuntwork and Special Actions Work

Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Today I woke up at 8am (somehow) and went up to NYC to audition for a stunt job. They were looking for stuntmen to do a commercial for a SpikeTV documentary. The management firm I’m associated with called me up yesterday and set me up with the audition. It went pretty […]

Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll A few weeks ago I was thinking about other turn-based games and Worms popped into my head. I always loved shooting missiles and watching the enemy worms go flying into the air. Then I asked myself, why can’t we shoot missiles in GC? That opened my mind up to a whole […]

Starting the comeback

Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Well I finally logged some more hours today working on GC. I spent a little time on it Thurs too but didn’t really accomplish much. I never get any work done on Friday nights (come on, it’s Friday night!) and Sat I was skiing all day for the first time this […]

Galaxy Conquest Video
February 20th, 2006 · No Comments · Software
Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll Well, I downloaded Fraps and tooks some captures of Galaxy Conquest in action. I figured it was the best I could do considering I can’t release a public demo just yet. It’s not the best quality since I needed to keep the filesize down in order to squeeze it onto what […]
