Aries the Editor

Huff!! I look the last date I posted something and pass a lot of time.. sorry guys, I continue working in the game, but I give a less gass, very extressed in the past moths...

Well now I'm working again in another Editor, I think it's the best Strategy for finish the game, perhaps for the end of this same years (well I think the same make 2 years ago).

For now something doens't works, but I think before the end of this month I will have working at 100%, for now I think I have the 89% working.

The Editor don't make great things but it's very helpully for some repetitive task, like put enemies and configure the attack patterns, change the kind explosions, and the sprite of the enemies... can do add details to the Scenario change OpenGL Lighting and touch the translations of the camera...

Perhaps I add something more, but for now I think whit this I will work more afordable...

Thanks for continue here, and I hope finish the game some near Century :)

Video Beta 0.1 BSun First Stage... Early Video

Well whit a bit of Delay, I leave this video, it's only for testing something, and you can see something about the game... a lot of days and hours working here!!!, from March of the past year to Final of the 2012, too much hours picking code, and making graphics, but basically I do the hardest part, I'm not programmer and I beggin only make a 3 years ago... Thanks GLBasic, you are the Best languaje for a Indie Developer, or for someone like me don't have any idea to pick a only one line of code...

I hope you like at least a bit... else feel free to comment me anything, all I can do better, always it's nice ear another opinions...

Thanks a lot, and thanks for continue looking the news in my post...
I hope in a medium or not too much long time, Black Sun can be the lights in the App Markets for movile devices... I'm planning seriously make a port to PC, but this require more enfort, for make texture and more definied Graphics...

Thanks a lot for continue Here!!!,

Lot of time whitout Updates... But continue in progress...

Well in this post I put some images about the Second Stage, the first Stage I leave a video, very poor, and not it's the real gameplay, but you can see somthing in movement... but first le me show you, some images I work this week, how I told this are for the Second Stage, but at today I don't have too much definied how will be the backgrounds, I'm thinking in a winter whit frozen paradise, or something more caoutin in the midnight... But I have sometime to think about this...

The graphics are only modeled , except only one I put tecxtures yet...

Basically are torrets for attack to the player... If you find some changes in the UI of the soft, I changed... I love Cinema 4D... I think a very very good tool!!! much better than 3ds Max...

I leave a tiiny videos, texting the movement of a couplt of torrets...

This don't have too much quality, but for a light idea this it's in the rocks of the mountains, from the hole appears the enemies making some pattern

And this it's only a simple test for using this Weapon, I'm not sure if this will be a very hard Laser, or something like Plasma Ball, very whit a very strong explosion...

Looking back , in Youtube

Well I don´t remember this video I did, at the star of the Black sun, Looking the date says 11 December 2011, I think I arrive a bit later :)...

But I like the look of the video...

Few Enemies Atlas...

Some Enemies I did... some have more than a only One pattern... perhaps some models will be deleted or modified...

Another internal Tool

Hi whit this video I show you, a little tool but very effective...

It´s a simple Atlas creator for sprite... I try some utilities in internet, but in GLBasic don´t runs fine for me... and I made a simple Atlas creator.

In future versions, perhaps I add support to change colors and the tone of all Sprites at the same time, not it´s too much difficult, but for now this utility it´s present each day, when I do some Sprites in a 3D Suite.
