Strip Bounce (PC / Android if everything goes well)

Hey there,I recently started what will be a small game, and hopefully the first PC game I will officially release (read : actually release) : Strip Bounce.In this game, you are a little square thingy shooting to other geometrical shapes thingies with your death laser of vengence, BUT with a twist : you can't actually fire at enemies. I used pool game as an inspiration for this : different types of enemies require different amounts of your laser bouncing off walls to be killed. If your laser hits...

DNA is edited in segments of four, and each segment does a different thing. So a segment dedicated to leaves could allow you to change the type of leave, wether that means its a light leaf, dark leaf, fuzzy leaf, whatever.

Game engine structure

I was starting on some simple program today, and when i wanted to draw something, i noticed OpenGL wouldn't reallydraw my lines. Since i used Java with still LWJGL 2.9 i decided to update to LWJGL 3, but this newer version completely changesthings like displays and such, so i decided to make a new engine. Normally i just use the simple engine i made some time ago,which only handles display creation, openGL initialization, and a game loop. And since i want to write a better engine, i'm wonderingh...

Raymarch Shaders

Apart from making particle systems i do more with shaders, and that is mainly raymarching.For those of you who don't know, raymarching is a rendering technique (like rasterizing).for every pixel a ray is casted from the camera and folowed until it hits an object, mostlydone by having a distance formula (which surprisingly returns the distance to a surface) andmoving forward until the distance is smaller than a certain number (like 0.0001).I've whipped up a program to load and draw the shader on ...

It's biggest feature is something I call AutoRPN. It can accept input in all 3 major notation formats: Infix, polish, and reverse polish. Of course, this means sometimes you have to use parenthesis in RPN expression ('sacrilege,' RPN enthusiasts cry), but it's generally a lot more convenient than any one input method. Screenshots[/...
