Well, to be honest, I’ve been thinking lately much about what to do. This website was created by a gaming and web development enthusiast, actually, that is, me, so after a year of low prio attention to this web, it still has became interesting spot on net for browser games. Atleast I see it that way. I was browsing on sites like BBG Site and similar like one where you can actually learn to code web games, PBBG’s or MMO’s, however you like to call them, and saw that they all found something they specialize in. Like – browser gaming news and reviews, or code explanations, or just plain communities. Still, i think I found 1 thing that none of them have, and I’m about to do it this year. Good...
Hello; I decided to re-open community boards. Set up SMF board, and made several categories. Idea is to create small community where we can all discuss about browser games ideas, development, marketing, and just about any aspect as players and webmasters. I’ve created Browser Games Directory a while ago, also now made boards where you can post about development, make suggestions or ask for help. Also, there is section about marketing. If you’re game owner, you can try and find mates for link trading / exchange, or similar. URL is HERE, so join if you like.
Since I’ve been working pretty much like a madman on my new idea (I kinda like those which occupy you immediately), just now, by testing my new creation, in only 24h development time, I decided to write you a bit about engine progress so far… I wrote few thoughts yesterday about possible features engine may have, and I must say, part of them proved to be heavy to make. Still, I write this with smile on my face, since I think I just made something new in browser based games. OK; not sure entirely, but I never saw this before, must say. Anyway, to skip self promotion and stuff, let me in few words try to describe what I’ve done so far: First, a screenshot: Click on it to make it bigger (load in separate...
Yeah, well. You will most probably think I’m going insane. I myself think now I’m going insane thinking about new mini project. You see, I don’t have much time for my biggest love, programming nowdays. Nor do I actually work as a Web programmer, nor does life gives me much time for work on projects I’d love to do. It’s hard to maintain something you simply know will go down because of lack of time. That’s why I love small, dynamic projects, and I cannot resist from this new idea I have. I opensourced my 2D tile engine last week. In meanwhile I got questions like, will there be map editor, or will I improve this engine… It all may happen, and most likely will. Still, besides...
************************************************* If you find this usefull, consider taking a survey and making your contribution for this website. It’s totally free for you, and will take only some seconds of your time, but it keeps site running. Thank you. ************************************************* Here’s something perfect for your browser games Time has come for me to give something back to you. It’s only fair – I learned all I know from Open Source communities, and after years, I think it OK for me to give something back. I always thought that browser games need maps, especially if fantasy themed. Nowdays, you can find maps in most of games out there, but part of them are still static,...
I just wanted to inform you about what I’m currently doing here. Found myself like hour or two, and did some work here First; I’ve added browser games directory. If you’re a webmaster, you can now easily promote your game using bbgdev.com via directory page. I will approve each link as they come, since I’m eager to avoid potential spambot invasion. You can visit it [here] or by using horizontal menu at the top. Other than that, I started working on Browser games demos. So far 2 demos are avaliable, of eZRPG game and Dragon Knight engines. Well, I’m not yet ready to show URL’s since I wanted to create, let’s say, 5 game demos before I go out. But, it might be ready any time...
Hi all, I noticed that lot of games I have listed here have expired links, and also, you cannot see demos of those games on all links (like those that lead to SourceForge, etc). Those browser games can be used, modified and extended, but many of you actually don’t know if they’re worth the time unless you can see demo, right? Right! So, I thought a bit about putting up demos of each open source game we have here. Dominant Creature is on hold for some time, atlough, I do plan to enhance it’s features a bit. Chances are I’ll be able to produce another version in end of march, or even april. So before that, we might do something usefull here. So, when and how is next big question. First, you can...
Hi folks, I thought a bit these days, perhaps I can create something I didn’t do ever before. What if this might be very interesting… I mean, I am sure deep within, that for a nice game graphics isn’t neccessary most important feature (or, that’s what I’m saying to myself, considering I can’t do nice design ), but what if we could add a little different perspective into same map, and same game… Well, I guess DEMO [opens in new window/tab] is in order. (keep in mind, please, this is showcase of work in progress)
