reynders / grambers

A Gravity Force / Turbo Raketti / Thrust game clone and platform

A thrust / Turbo Raketti / Gravity Force clone game and a game platform.

Supports Tiled maps (htt://www.mapeditor.org) and uses jbox2d for physics.

Build instructions

Download and install Maven 3+ Build with "mvn test"

Running

./run.sh grambers.Demo G

for more demos see Demo.scala

Backlog

• Support for arbitrary size game window
• Check performance bottlenecks
• Force debug draw
• Other game objects: start point, end point
• Find out why there are pauses (-XInt helps?)
• Switch to use the scala Swing implementation (http://www.scala-lang.org/sites/default/files/sids/imaier/Mon,%202009-11-02,%2008:55/scala-swing-design.pdf)

Done

• Int Point
• Use centralized platform specific bufferimage creation
• logging fw in use
• Force information to gameobject xml
• Take first game map into use
• Move object manipulation into game loop instead of key event handler
• Fix keyboard input: key down -> apply, key up -> stop applying
• Integrated with jbox2d
• Polygon shapes
• Introduce gravitation force
• Shape to case class (http://programming-scala.labs.oreilly.com/ch06.html#CaseClasses)
• Fix bug on mac: tile buffering is one tile row too late (unreproducible)
• Rewrite game loop to update objects for only specific point of time, then interpolate until next update
• Try out git branching locally
• Detach view window coordinates from universe coordinates
• Support for sprites
• Better demo that also supports performance profiling -Xprof
• Support for smooth animation between world state updates
• Refactor the demo class (Main)
• Shape Point
• Detach universe time from drawing speed
• Static objects
