It is once again time for a prototyping challenge! The rules are the same. You are an elite programmer that wants to make something fun without spending ten years in art school learning how to draw stick figures. This time, we are tackling an ancient, yet still fascinating, genre that is long overdue resurrection: The God Game. Back in the day, there was a game call Populous where you played a god. I've divided the challenge up into two sections. Challenge Part I: Core MechanicsHave you ever experienced the simple joy of sorting your Legos? As with all mechanics, the written design is a starting point. The mapThe land starts out with randomly sorted PlanetCute prototyping tiles, piled up to five levels deep. There are several types of tiles: Basic tiles: There are a few basic tiles, grass, dirt, water.Rare tiles: Each basic tile has a rare analogue such as emerald, ruby or sapphire. Prayer listAlong the side of window is a list of patterns that various villagers want you to build. Related:  References et textures

The Cinematography of "The Incredibles" Part 2 See Part 1 here.Continuing with my case study of the shot compositions from Pixar's film "The Incredibles". All images used here are ©Disney/Pixar (unless otherwise stated). Composition in film includes many different aspects; color, shape, line, contrast, positioning, cropping, viewpoint, rhythm, perspective, proportion, geometry, and many more. The dinner table sequence is a nice one that showcases how well you can move the camera around depending on which character(s) you want to make as the focus of the shot. With 5 characters all facing inwards, turning their heads left an right according to which other person they are talking to, you create scenario that can have a million different ways you can shoot this scene from. A 2 shot. Warm colors, warm lighting, all conveying a comfortable family environment. Characters are never blending into the background too much, color tones and shape (silhouettes) are always clear to make the image fast and easy to read. Rule of Thirds is everywhere.

Creating Particles with Three.js ## Introduction Hello again. So by now you’ve got started with Three.js. Three.js treats a particle system like any other primitive shape in that it has geometry and position, scale and rotation properties. Even though they are treated as part of the same object we can still style the particles individually in terms of their colour since Three.js sends through colour attributes to the shader when it’s drawing them. There is also a knock-on effect of having a particle system governed by the geometry vertices, which you may need to consider. To create a particle system we need the following code:

Aris Kolokontes art. Make Games! Tutorial: Simple game with HTML5 Canvas - part 1 Check other language versions: [RUSSIAN] Tutorial: Simple game with HTML5 Canvas Part 1 - Introduction & Background Part 2 - Character & Animation Part 3 - Physics & Controls Part 4 - Platforms & Collisions Part 5 - Scrolling & Game States If you are interested in news and updates of that tutorial just follow me on twitter: [MichalBe's Twitter] Because 10KApart is closed now, and we are all waiting for the results, it is good time to remind my very simple "Stairs to heaven" game and explain in details how it was made. StH is very simple clone of Doodle Jump, but to be honest I was inspired by Icy Tower and discover DJ after I submit StH to the competition. Part 1. That's all in HTML we will need during this tutorial. First of all its important to understand one thing about canvas - it is not possible to move objects in the canvas surface. var clear = function(){ ctx.fillStyle = '#d0e7f9'; //set active color to #d0e... Nice, but boring less only a little. Part 1.

#ConceptCraniopagus Blog on deviantART The Spriters Resource | Main Page Velo Towers Design Project (+ VIDEO) An unusual Velo Towers design project by Asymptote Architecture promises to become a significant architectural landmark of Yongsan Park, South Korea.

Velo Towers feature unconventional design due to skilful fusion of the typical tower architecture into horizontal and vertical configuration.

How Gamesalad Can Help You Create Your Own Video Game This Austin company can turn almost anyone into a game developer. Gamesalad's Dan Treiman (far left), Tan Tran and Michael Agustin. It's one thing to post a few cute animal videos on YouTube or populate a Facebook page with photos and status updates. But it's something else to think that anyone can create video games. Michael Agustin and friends Tan Tran and Daniel Treiman founded the company in 2007. They decided to move to Austin, a creative city with a low cost of living where their less-than-$20,000 self-funded startup capital would go further than in Silicon Valley. When they began to seek funding for their efforts, initially they came up empty. But the loose collection of attorneys, doctors and real estate investors just weren't "getting" the concept. Eventually, the tech-savvy crowd took notice--including Beau Laskey of Burbank, Calif., VC firm Steamboat Ventures, an affiliate of The Walt Disney Company. Like this article?

Millennium Park Planning of the park began in October 1997. Construction began in October 1998, and Millennium Park was opened in a ceremony on July 16, 2004, four years behind schedule. The three-day opening celebrations were attended by some 300,000 people and included an inaugural concert by the Grant Park Orchestra and Chorus. The park has received awards for its accessibility and green design.[3] Millennium Park has free admission,[4] and features the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, Cloud Gate, the Crown Fountain, the Lurie Garden, and various other attractions. Some observers consider Millennium Park to be the city's most important project since the World's Columbian Exposition of 1893.[4][5] It far exceeded its originally proposed budget of $150 million.
