Seeing as how classes are almost over, how many of you in college have a CS job or internship ready for the summer? I'm the only one in my class that doesn't, and I feel like it's too late to look for one.

Asking if I would be able to compete.

Not sure whether I want to do that yet, however, as medical technology is not exactly my forte.

I've got something to work on (you know what it is) basically for the whole summer but yeah, if you host a game compo, I'll gladly join :)
Updated my C# messenger per Tamschi's feedback. It now throws exceptions instead of WriteLine-ing. Also updated the README wording to reflect the chosen license better. [url]https://github.com/CptAsgard/PotionMessenger[/url]

[QUOTE=Rocket;47649745]Oh my god. So a few years ago I made a Kongregate account with the goal of making terrible flash games and getting ad money (like, for example, [url=http://www.kongregate.com/games/PlasticContainer/spaceship-adventure]this game[/url]). I stopped after a month of doing it because thinking of terrible game ideas is really hard (though [url=http://www.kongregate.com/accounts/PaperCup]PaperCup[/url], fellow Facepuncher (WHO IS IT) seems to be doing alright). A year later I made [url=http://www.kongregate.com/games/PlasticContainer/youtube-lets-player-simulator-2014]YouTube Let's Player Simulator 2014[/url] in a few hours as a joke. Apparently people are still playing it. It has 27,473 plays. I don't know why, but I do know that I'm going to cash in my $45 in ad money as soon as Kongregate lets me.[/QUOTE] May this give you hope - even biggest shit is marketable :v:. I also laughed at that first game, it's just so horrible.
3d ship UI. This project is due tomorrow but at this point I'm just phoning it in now. [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/LIQdLYR.png[/thumb] Hopefully other people's projects are equally incomplete or terrible (excluding yours DoctorSalt ofcourse)
[QUOTE=Rocket;47649558]Sure! It's a game programming competition. The last one was [url=http://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1385585]about a year ago[/url] (ignoring the algorithm challenge and the obfuscation challenge, both of which were spinoff challenges). Anyone can enter. [editline]3rd May 2015[/editline] Also, I'm just going to say this now to remind people: read the OPs of these competitions. Every time there's always somebody who ignores a rule or is confused about something that is clearly explained in the OP.[/QUOTE] Lets make everyone generate their game theme using Rant.

I guess I can compete, shit's not that complex. Meanwhile, I did an extremely shitty 2D movement script. What do you guys use to upload videos here? Like webm, not youtube.
[QUOTE=fewes;47648831]Using SMFL to render the sprites I want to shade into a mask and then running it through a GLSL shader once per light. The result is then stored in a light buffer which is applied over the screen at the end of rendering. The light buffer looks like this (I added a global ambient lighting value just now): [img]http://puu.sh/hzsKd.gif[/img][/QUOTE] The column shadows seem off, some of them appear to just stop when crossing another shadow... I assume those are supposed to be multiple rows in the foreground somewhere, but as it is it just looks confusing. I think the effect would work better if you made a simple "2D" hallway with openings in the ceiling but without real invisible foreground objects.

Also here's some SSAO because why not: [vid]http://puu.sh/hzRct.webm[/vid]
Since I've been able to rip Final Fantasy XII stuff with intact animations and all, I thought maybe I'll just make a clone of FF12 :v: Doesn't matter if it's not finished though, at least I'tll be a fun learning. Thinking of making it fight like Dark Souls (yeah its a long shot but still) For now I'll just make it and endless procedurally generated dungeon, with infinite depth. Would be fun if it's multiplayer, just to see how the players will survive the depths [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/oPYyjIk.png[/IMG] The Hell Wyrm. I remembered fighting this guy for 4 hrs straight with his 30-layer HP bar :v: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/cvMzlJc.png[/IMG]
So I've dropped my tetris clone for now, all block aligner needs is a main menu with options, and a saved high scores menu. So since it's working I've moved on to a more challenging project. I've started making a scorched earth clone, I'm calling it Toss Battle. After a day / day and a half of struggle I've gotten deformable terrain. When I cause an explosion it will destroy some of the terrain pixels and send the rest flying. I created a pixel class to do this, It allows me to turn any pixel into an object with a velocity, and they collide with each other and the non moving terrain pixels as well. After coming to a rest they become normal pixels again, the performance is pretty good, I'll optimize more later. However the lag in the video is from recording, also it has gotten blurry after uploading it. [video=youtube;H2N7HCTQE_A]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2N7HCTQE_A[/video] Also I've put this on GitHub, if anyone wants to see my code. [URL]https://github.com/FANTYM/my_projects/[/URL]
[QUOTE=Zazibar;47650352]A Rant themed game jam could be pretty fun.[/QUOTE] I'm all for this, but I'd wait until v2.0 is released in late June. We have a lot of neat stuff planned for it.

I'm the only one in my class that doesn't, and I feel like it's too late to look for one.[/QUOTE] I was in the same position my 3rd year of college, and I felt really bad over the summer because I had nothing to do, so I found a job as a janitor. Now I work for an awesome company, and it turns out they were looking for interns my 3rd year, and by doing nothing but sitting in my basement I managed to almost not find a job here Also it's never too late to look for internships, there'll still be places with empty positions, and they'll usually still be empty at the end of the summer if they're still empty at the start. (Also, since I was pretty nervous about it, in my experience, nobody asks "why did you take so long to find an internship?", they'll mostly be exited they have someone to delegate work to, and you'll have a week's worth of stuff to do before you walk out the door)

I could say I work on projects to build my resume and learn but it's really to get into the highlights so I can get winner, zing, and programming king ratings on a forum for 10 year olds. Ill just put "WAYWO Highlight selectee" on my resume.
