Re: pong clone

Well, for now it kind of works but I hope that when I work on more complex programs, I will have to force myse...

Re: Share your creation

hey kpence,
congratulations on your neat program. Me too I would love to have a glimpse at your code, especially at the scrolling implementation. I like the fact that it starts to scroll before the player has moved all to the sides!

Re: screen scrolling solution and/or fail

So I had the same thing when I tried it on my netbook.. still didn't work out a clean way of programmi...

Finally made a first model, but it still has some annoying bug. Here is what I did: first i needed some new variables. uppery (100),// outline bor...

Re: space taxi for poor people

space taxi for poor people

Hey Chili, first of all thank you for your tutorials which I enjoy watching a lot. I'm a total beginner in programming but amazed how quickly one can start trying out things. I've written a first little "game" using your poo but not your face. More than 12 seconds of thrilling gameplay guaranteed! I...
