Programming General

Right now we need to figure out who's going to help code the project and we will only need two or three programmers, so I want everyone who wants to help to make a post here describing your skills/experience. We are using C++ with Haaf's Game Engine so you need to know how to code C++.

Edit: I have enough programmers for now but if we need more later on I will let you guys know.

I'd like to do my part. It's been a while since I felt motivated to work on a project.

I'm currently a senior in CMPS at my college and have about another year and a half until I get to join the crazy ass business world. Anyway, I'm better with C++ and not very wise when it comes to .net framework and the like. I've taken a game programming class as well as made a sidescroller with a group of mine for another class.

So yeah, if you guys need someone to code, I need the practice and experience. That's basically what I'm trying to say.

EDIT - I can also do some writing if need be. Did a lot of that in the past for about 2 years.

well, i'm a novice at c++
but i know enough to code simple 2d games i'm sure
what are we using engine wise?

also, can we please abandon the steam group and concentrate with the forums....
quite a few people don't have steam/can't use it and it is causing segregation within the community....

I'm open to help at any time. I have experience in C++, both 2D and 3D. I've been programming for about 4 years, and have a flexible schedule, so I'll be able to work on the game quite a bit.

Here's some work I've already done.

I can work after May 13th When my thesis is in.

I can submit code if you want a scale of my tallents. No exe's because all my windows code is connected to my deggree. But I got a SDL game I may put up.

Edit:

Oh and Im working on a networked game using the SDL framework

Pro programmer here, we talked in the Steam chat. I've got a basic game/engine thing in HGE and plenty of experience.

Thanks man. The game is very buggy on certain computers, sadly I never got these problems worked out before my computer crashed and I lost all the data.

EDIT: Actually, I can't even get it to start on my new computer.

2nd version here, might work better.

And if any of you can't get the game to start, I could program up a little something to show.

When were ready to move on with the implementation, us wizards should get in skype and knock out who can do what.

I'd like to help, but I'm not sure how much I'd be. Only have a little experience in C++, and it hasn't really been with games, mainly data manipulation... have done some games in other languages though. Anyway, I'm not super qualified, but if you need someone who is excited about a project and is good at problem solving, I'm your guy.

Edit: Oh, and I have only been programming for a few years, currently a sophomore in college. I enjoy coding, and am looking for some more experience.

I'm a college junior studying computer science so I have knowledge in programming C, C++, java and would like more experience. I have helped on some 2d games before but would like more experience. If you're not looking for a complete pro programmer/designer then I'd be happy to help.

I'm not a pro but I have some knowledge in C# and C++ if there's something I can help the project with let me know.

I'm also a competent artist but I think we have enough of them for now.

Right now I want LeeSirrico and RedBadger to help. I talked to Lee already on Steam, but do you have a Steam account RedBadger? If you do please post it here or else let me know of some other way for me to contact you like Skype. If we need more people to help later on I might be able to get one or two more but for now this should be enough.

My Steam should be RedBadger, I have an avatar of Lucy from Elfen Lied if that helps.

If it's not RedBadger, it's RedRedBadger.

My Skype should be RedRedBadger. Also, I'll give this my best!



To Lee, I played around with the 3D version of your game a bit, and it froze up a lot. I liked the soundtrack(the one song I heard ), and I'll play around with the 2D version later.

Hello all. Is my help still needed? I've finished almost all my schoolwork and now have plenty of time to help out when needed.

Technically we don't need you to work on anything specifically now, but we will definitely need more help later. It would be great if you could take a look at the engine now so when we're ready to get you coding you will be comfortable with the code. I'm usually on Steam so get on when you can and I'll set you up.

Hey guys, had some computer problems, but I'm back. Expect me to not really work much until the week after next though, finals.

However, I'm still looking forward to working on this project. So, I'm still here, just gonna be barely active until this school work is finished.

Seems like this project is dying anyway, me and Xyzxyz are pretty much the only people still actively developing. I might just ask him if he wants to start a new project with his engine since it would be a shame to let his work go to waste. If something like that happens I'll let you know.

Alright man, just steam message me sometime.
