Re: Ravag3Ritual LFG need a programmer
Programming a game can take a tremendous amount of time and effort. Even more so for a multiplayer game, and more so than that for an MMO-style one. Ideas are useful, but implementing an idea is the hard part by far, plus for an MMO you need a lot of money. I'll give the same advice (19:25) given by...

Re: Optimizing parallax star background
I don't think I want framebuffers that big.
Gah, spritebatches don't let you set the color of stuff you add to them. Lame. :/

Re: Optimizing parallax star background
How would I go about making the stars loop back to create an 'infinite starfield' using those methods?

Re: Optimizing parallax star background
I looked into those, but I'm not sure how to implement them so that they'll work with my stars which move at varying speeds and "wrap around" the screen.

Optimizing parallax star background
I have a parallax star background in my game, but drawing it takes a significant chunk of resources (I get 55% more FPS when I don't draw it). Is there a more efficient way to do this, or some way to better optimize my code? I made it have random depths (and sizes) because I think it looks a lot nic...

Re: Forum Super Project - ÖRGY
Adding to the list of ideas, a multiplayer tank game sort of like a 2D version of BZFlag might be cool.

Re: Forum Super Project
Why all the MMO suggestions? For a persistent world wouldn't we need to host our own servers? / sounds fun, I'll do it! :D I like space games the best, but that's just me. I know at least a few people who would love something similar to a multiplayer EV:N. I might be able to get my friend to make so...

Re: Recent Trend
EV: Nova is one of my favourite games. <.< >.>
I eventually want to see if I can do some sort of multiplayer for mine, but I might not get that far.

Re: Unnamed top-down space game
Huh, weird. What are your computer specs? I have a 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo using an nvidia geforce 9400m, and I got 200-210 fps (with vsync off) while sitting still doing nothing. I changed the radar to only update at a maximum of 20fps and that brought my framerate up to 230-240, but I guess that won't r...
