🎉 Big news, folks! Some genius decided we needed a 3D version of #Box2D, because apparently, "third dimension" is the new black in physics engines. 🚀 Now you can finally have triangle mesh collisions and graph coloring in your epic 3D tic-tac-toe game! 🙄 #RevolutionaryNotReally

Hi folks! ✌️

Here's the new version of the game about our feathery friend 🐦👉 https://fediverse.tv/w/9oPmEH866vmVfGpEqzt25D

The link to download the game in the video description 🙂, because... I doubt that if I will put here two links, the video will shows you here (on Mastodon) from PeerTube 😅

Have a good, and productive day for you 🙂

Birdy wants crisps 🐦 v1.5.1

https://fediverse.tv/w/9oPmEH866vmVfGpEqzt25D

Hi folks!

Here's a little update of Birdy 🐦 where your progress saves in Mini-Games 💾

👉 https://codeberg.org/xolatgames/Birdy-wants-crisps/releases/tag/v1.5.0

And I've add "Continue game" option to the main menu, btw! But saving your progress touches only Mini-Games yet ☝️

Have a good day! 😉👋✌️

Hi folks! ✌️ I have a couple of news about the game about the bird Birdy 🐦📰

I've add Jorik 🐧 to "Walking through street" mini-game, and changed the Birdy's hair color.

The new version you can already download from the Birdy's Codeberg page 🏔️👉 https://codeberg.org/xolatgames/Birdy-wants-crisps/releases/tag/v1.4.2

And also, I upload it to my website soon.

See you soon! 😉👋

Hi folks! ✌️ I have the last new for today, because here's the night 🌙

Now Birdy 🐦 has a smooth animation for picking up Crisps 🍟

You can download the new version right from here 🏔️👉 https://codeberg.org/xolatgames/Birdy-wants-crisps/releases/tag/v1.4.1

Have a good sleep! 🥱🙂😴

Hi, folks! ✌️ I have a couple of news for yous.

First new - is that Birdy 🐦 can works without "resource 📦" files... Almostly. If the game can't find necessary files, it shows the error, instead of getting a crash.

A spoiler in the video below 👇

Got WASM (with pthreads) working on my JS game launcher. (Web game APIs without a browser)

Here's the box2d physics engine compiled to WASM, running on a retro handled device.

Phaser Studio has released their own Box2D physics engine based on the 3.0 version written in C, which they converted to modern JavaScript, making it the only v3 port currently available for the web.

Ah yeah, a little disclaimer.

Making a game in C with #raylib and #box2d

Don't have a full picture idea, but it'll be something about ships and naval fights.
Decided to set the goal low this time — I will figure out what exact game it'll be based on my experimentations with all that low-level stuff

Apparently, reinventing the wheel isn't good

Just use #box2d

#LibreOffice has… #Box2D as a dependency?

For the character controller I used the first couple of tutorials from https://catlikecoding.com/unity/tutorials/movement/ as a reference.
This approach seems to work with #box2D just like with PhysX in 3D.

Playing around with a #love2d project to test some tech stuff:
- A #box2d character controller
- Creating and exporting maps from @tiled
- A tile set with a normal map to create a day / night effect.
- Reverb and echo effects

I just wanted to give a HUGE shoutout to @ughuuu (?) for his work on the Box2D Godot plugin!

https://github.com/appsinacup/godot-box2d

Box2D seems like a largely better 2D physics engine for my use-case, BUT it had a collision detection issue. After I provided a simple repro project, a new patch release was available within 24 hours with the fix.

Thanks <3

@kantel hast du schonmal über ein #Framework wie #Box2d nachgedacht? Ich finde das sehr praktisch.
