Standard Waiver

Heh, it's not an actual 3D mesh object, just an enhancement to the mesh distort feature...

*Perks up ears*

Enhancements to the mesh distortion eh... *Prays for built-in Z and Z buffer*. That would most definitely re-ignite my interest in my wip 3D engine.

Wow this game is full of awesome. Great use of sound. The footsteps I thought were a bit annoying but they served their purpose.

Thanks for the feedback, guys.

If anyone actually is interested in the source, here's an improved, stripped-down version that I just cleaned up for a little project I started tonight. This time it uses families for positioning the 3D boxes, so adding new walls is much less of a hassle.

The transparency in those statue head things went weird for me?

This is a great engine!

I made an Arnold (Terminator-dude, can't write his last name) that follows you and yells at you.

And the transparency is indeed odd on the sprite-statue thingies. As well as on my Arnold.

Mind just went kablooie.

Yeah, the alpha thing is annoying, as far as I can tell it's 3D Box weirdness.

I've found that engine I posted is actually pretty crap, once you add a few hundred boxes the framerate takes a big hit. I've improved things by taking the redundant stuff out of the loop and removing the family attribute--adding the repeated code back (like I did for the competition) in for the most common static features like walls and floors.

EEeeeee! (girlish squeal of delight)

Congratulations on your placing, Radix. You were up against some serious competition!

That looks too cool for school

Also, congrats on placing so high in the compo! I only played a few of the entries, but yours was the most fun.

Oh that's just slick as hell... LoZ in 2.5D

Is it just a dungeon remake of the whole game I wonder?

~Sol

The plan was to remake the whole thing, but I don't see myself having much free time for the next couple weeks at least. So far it's about 90% of the first dungeon.
