is it on, is it working

aha. I've been having a bunch of fun errors with SFML's music/sound classes, but now I've mostly narrowed it down to this: I can't stop() any music tracks because they'll never play again. So instead I have to pause() them when they've nearly finished and reset their play positions to 0 when they next come up. Skipping was also broken because of some precision problems or something when using getDuration and set/getPlayPosition in SFML, so I sort of fixed that by changing some Uint32s to Uint64.

SFML 2 or 1?

2, I haven't modified any sound code in it

Ah. Bug report time? Or if you can make a minimal code snippet of the bug, I might look to see if it's easily fixable.
[QUOTE=jalb;33157235]I am using SAT for most of the collisions. However, some shapes can be more easily computed without SAT. For example, I have a whole SAT system setup, but it would be way more overhead than is necessary for something like AABB-AABB.[/QUOTE]
Really nice work! I tried to get SAT working a while back, but couldn't wrap my head around it. Have you heard of the GJK algorithm? Works based on Minkowski differences, which I find much easier to visualise (though just as difficult to code..). Your SAT seems to be working really well but it's an interesting topic and I've heard it's often quite a bit more efficient - [url=www.wildbunny.co.uk/blog/2011/04/20/collision-detection-for-dummies/]this guy[/url] has a good explanation of it further along.
So I tried maze generation.

Now that I half-assed it, I can look up a real algorithm for it.

Well...I'll try with a fresh SFML and app tomorrow, I think it's more likely I messed it up somewhere by switching out a dll or two (libsndfile-1, openal) when trying to fix sounds (before I knew how they worked).

That looks like it'd be great for a zelda-like game's map generation.

If you wanna go with square mazes, depth first search is a really easy algorithm and produces pretty decent results!

Sexified the bullet sprite so it's not a boring grey dot
Player movement is also pretty solid.

Do you have any good articles/tutorials on it?
Its something im going to be needing in the not so far future

How's it compare to h.264?

That parallax is so sexy. It might need to be sped up a tiny bit though.

Hey guys, I made my first android game. Please download it and tell me what you think. Its a remake of the classic Pipes game where you connect up all the tiles to turn them all green

The only thing I can suggest is to make it more obvious that there are blocks outside the screen (Maybe let the default game be 5x5), such as when first starting the game, I was confused as hell in the first game I played, when the bottom row was entirely horizontal pipes that couldn't connect to anything.
Or maybe a zooming feature so we can see more of the board, the game is like mahjong in the fact that it's really helpful to see more than a section of the screen at a time

It's very lossy actually, and seems to be flickering.

[QUOTE=synthiac;33161265]h.264 is superior by design[/QUOTE]
But isn't free. It costs a bucket load to be allowed to have the decoder, so of course Firefox doesn't support it.
However, I did find a plugin for Firefox that MS made for Win 7 users, so they could use the h.264 codec on Firefox. The latest version it supports is only FF5, so I need a h.264 video to test it with. Anyone got one?

Make the y parallexed too, so that down low the trees look sort of in front of the mountains.

The lines look a little too thick to me, just makes the dead ends look like little stumps. Otherwise, not bad

I'm already not.
What's weird is it somehow seems to be outputting to my ingame console even though I SEE NOTHING THAT DOES THAT
Curious.

This makes me sad.

I'm almost there.
I'm having trouble with the backtracking part; how did you mark your cells off to not be included? The red squares in my picture have already been visited; that is, they were part of one cell's set of neighbors, and they were not chosen to continue the maze. When backtracking, I can't go by looking for unvisited cells, because that doesn't find any thing. I can't think of how else to do it.

I pushed them onto a stack when my current node changed direction and if they had any directions in which they could travel. Then if my current node didn't have any directions left to travel, I would make the next item on the stack the current node.
I've decided after I'm finished with Avoidance, I'm never making another thing for the iOS for as long as I live. Too many problems
