Netbeans Platform book

Helius — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 06:51:17 +0000

I came across a new book from Packt Publishing about Netbeans Platform.

In some of my game projects I have the need to write some custom editors, (world editors, material systems, particle editors, AI tweaking…)

Although I am very used to make my game editors in C#, Netbeans Platform could be a very valuable option to write this kind of editors rapidly.

Ozone available on April 9th world-wide

After one year of hard coding and long periods without sleep I finished Ozone with my mates at Geardome!

http://ozone.geardome.com

Some curiosities about the game:

- 1 year of development (not full time). Although we based the game in a previous game of us (Hydrium) we started completely from scratch, both art, audio and code.

- Full 3D game engine coded in C++ and fully optimized for portable devices (iPhone, iPad, PSP, Nintendo DS…), easily portable, with cool features, effects, particles, culling, but lacks some things like materials and animation (maybe for the next game).

- 60 FPS on iPad, iPhone 3GS, and iPod touch 2nd gen and above. 30 FPS on old models.

- Fully integrated with Bullet Physics Engine for physics simulation. Bullet runs quite fast indeed! We are definitely using it in future projects.

- 3D sound based in OpenAL.

- Modular design, based in episodes. Ozone currently ships with 5 episodes but it will be easy for us to add more episodes.

- Online MySQL database for storing world wide scores.

- iPad edition is on the way.

Ozone Development Diary (iPhone Game)

With the help of César Sampedro I have started a development diary for our latest game for iPhone and iPod Touch: Ozone.

César is the lead artist in Geardome and has previously worked in games such as Motorstorm and Clive Barker’s Jericho.
