Interesting Developer's Blog
« on: October 21, 2009, 05:47:16 PM »
I came across this guy's blog a few weeks back and meant to post a link to it, but I forgot. Here it is anyway:

http://rebelfive.wordpress.com/2009/06/09/new-game-thoughts-and-a-javascript-adventure-game-creator/

He's a web app programmer who's made some pretty awesome JavaScript games in his spare time, and currently he's tinkering with the design of a grid based RPG adventure. I love his map engine, but I think I'd find it too slow compared to the "hands on" way. He used two arrays for grid mapping: one for collision classes and another for sprites.

It could just be me, but his map editor ran really slowly.

It didn't run slow for me, but I think it's a slow way to develop in general. I've gotten really fast at typing zeros and ones. ;D
