Kotlin is a programming language developed by JetBrains (the makers of IntelliJ IDEA), which compiles down to Java bytecode. I got over my initial aversion for the ugly name, and decided to give it a try. Now I never want to go back to Java. Here’s why.
I didn’t plan it this way, but it seems to be becoming a tradition: redesigning this website around the new year. Last time, we went from this…
This weekend, November 5th and 6th (and actually yesterday as well), Twistago has a stand at one of Germany’s largest board game fairs, Spielwies’n, in the MOC in München. Come visit us if you’re in the area!
Because Dragon Attack’s performance on Crafty.js was disappointing, and the libGDX port also had problems running smoothly when compiled to JavaScript (plus some unfortunate technical decisions I made along the way), I’ve decided to go for a third rewrite, using better tech. (“Rewrite” sounds worse than it really is – we’re talking about a two-day Ludum Dare project, after all.)
This… is Leonardo’s Painting Machine! It’s my entry for the Ludum Dare 36 compo, a game jam where you make a game in 48 hours, this time to the theme of ‘Ancient Technology’.
Here’s a thing I’m working on:
The aim is simply to classify each square on the grid as either land or water. Your clues consist of the following:
This is the third and final part of a series in which I explain how the artificial intelligence works in my latest game, Twistago. In case you missed the first or second part, you can catch up on them here and here.
At the beginning of this year, I posted a set of goals for the first half of the year. The idea was that a public commitment would help me stick to them. With that period behind us, it’s time to see how I did. Ranked on a scale of 0 to 1:
This is the second part of a three-part series in which I explain how the artificial intelligence works in my latest game, Twistago. In case you missed the first part, you can catch up on it here.
This is the first part of a three-part series in which I explain how the artificial intelligence works in my latest game, Twistago. The AI has three different levels: easy, normal and hard. This is also the order in which I developed them, each level building upon the lessons and code of the previous, so it’s only natural that I do this writeup in that order as well, starting with the Easy level.
