Re: Pong(after episode 6)

Thanks a lot for the tips! No, I haven't programmed in a different language before (although people have said it isn't the best language to start with), but I used to read C++ Programming and Principles. Also, yes, I do have a different speed each bounce. That isn't really what the normal game is li...

Re: Pong(after episode 6)

Limit the speed of the paddle, if the ball moves too fast or has a decent angle, the paddle won't catch up. Make it wait 100 ms before reacting to the ball hit, give it a reaction time delay. Sadly I haven't gotten far enough in the tutorial to do things based on time. I would've changed a lot of t...

Re: Snake Game - finished game

I agree with Chili, this is a full-fledged finished game in my opinion! Very well done! I'm currently at episode 10 and I looked at your code and was rather confused, since I didn't recognise a lot of that stuff. Is all of this from the Chili tutorials? If so, then I should be prepared for the stuff...

Re: Pong(after episode 6)

This is the original Pong game I based my version off of: http://www.ponggame.org In my version the ball does switch on what side it enters the game into, but the ball should respawn in the middle. Making the program object-oriented is important too, since I noticed it lacked structure already, even...

Re: Books/other stuff for new programmers

I've seen a lot of people who are just perpetually preparing, and never doing. "I'll start my big game project just after I learn X, Y, and Z" Just fucking do it shia_lebeouf.gif That was me before I found your tutorials haha. I would read 300 pages of "C++ Programming and Principles" and wait unti...

Pong(after episode 6)

Here's the github link to it: https://github.com/Zedtho/Pong Anyways, I wanted to ask you guys what I could've done more efficiently, or what I could've done better about the structure of the program, just beca...

How do I make multiple programs that use Chili's Framework?

I'm currently at the end of episode 7 of Chili's series, where he tells us we can now make games. I don't want to lose the current program we have made right now, but want to make a new program where I can try make a game. How do I do that? Because if I just make a new program, Chili's Framework is ...
