  • NimbleInput Overview

    One of the first things I like to think through is how user input will be provided in a game, and how I want to manage that within my game code. I've become fond of working at the higher abstraction level of "user actions" within the game code itself. I'd rather write my code to respond...

  • Done Pondering, Shifting Gears

    As my last post detailed (a couple of months ago), I came to a crossroads and have figured out a direction to go. The games I hope to make in the near future are not very complex and do not require amazing graphics capabilities. So, I will take this blog down a more generic path in 2D game programming...

  • Breaking Up the Solution, and How I Program

    I expect, in the end, Nimble2D will be a rather full-featured library for making games -- graphics, particles, collisions, input, sound effects, music, etc. But to get there, I will need to break things up into manageable chunks, building higher priority things first, then fleshing-in the more detailed...

  • A Nimble Launch

    On this first post of the new blogspace for Nimble2D , I'd like to do two things: (1) Give credit where it is due, and (2) give a brief overview of how I see this project at the start. So, credit ... First, a big thank you to Chris Williams for setting up ilovevb.net (a perfectly logical place for...
