Playing around with XNA
Posted by ben under projects
I started looking at the new framework from Microsoft and enjoyed the way everything has been simplified from directX, a very nice rapid game development api !
An example of the use of SpriteBatch, an easy class to create old styles 2d sprites :
Here is a quickly developed “bomberman” in c# with XNA library for testing and learning purposes, sprites graphics are taken from the famous Zelda game on Snes.

Hi,
Very good idea thought!
Do you think you can have some portability on your project development idea?

Looks interesting, but I would look at changing the graphics to your own or using a free set.
Are you going to publish the code for us all to see.

Thx for the comments all, I m surprised since I am not advertising this page I am wondering how and where you found it!?
For the graphics I am definitely not a graphics designer and since I m not releasing anything officially (and I’m far from it) I don’t think Nintendo will matter.
For the code I don’t like to release these kind of quick tests since there are dirty and not respecting minimum of standards :), so, not for now !
