Elysian Shadows

Delicious Banoffe pie.

Nice work. I approve of the sound track selection and sprite selection

Reading the value of std::cin straight into an integer is generally a bad idea (as various jumbles of text looping for an eternity has taught me.) A much safer, less error prone way to go about this is to input the values into a stringstream before hand and then stream into the variable like so. #in...

The syntax of your function definitions is wrong. In the current C++ standard it is illegal to define functions within functions (the new standard allows this in the form of lambdas). I am unsure why it compiles though I put it down to your function bodies actually being scopes within the main funct...

Great work! The game is well polished and the mechanics skillfully implemented to enhance the game-play rather than be an annoyance. The difficulty scaled with the waves at a good rate and the overheating adds a good element of strategy to which targets to go for (especially in the later game). Upgr...

Hey Irish. Thanks for the welcome. I wish you luck in learning the art of C++. I remember certain areas being adventurous to learn (pointers left me feeling dizzy until a couple hundred crashes later). Have a great time and don't feel frustrated if you don't quite get something. Some parts of C++ ju...

Awesome looking game . I especially like the varied tiles, objects and the audio. Now if only there were an android version...

Hello Everyone. After lurking round the forums for quite a while now. I decided to actually make a hello post and get involved with the community. I've been programming in C++ for about 6 years (first two years were really just dabbling with the language). Today I now play around with game developme...

After playing around with OpenGL in Qt and reading through the code. I found two things that could be cause of your texture issues. I'm assuming you have put the content folder in the working directory of the program (You do say it definitely exists; if you're unsure you can just call QDir::currentP...

I was slightly bored of writing code to read a file to get settings, etc. So I wrote a class or two to make it a bit more painless for myself. I haven't tested what happens when the config file format is incorrect (my bad) but I would bet it ends badly. This config (or ini, never looked up any diffe...

Don't worry I wasn't expecting an essay (else i'd be done in for plagiarism ;)) . Thanks for all the helpful info, I'll be sure to get stuck right in. I just looked up the book you mentioned and luckily google's got a preview copy so im reading that. The chart was also very interesting and will be u...

I am doing extended project and decided to look at "How programming languages have changed over time". After snooping round the internet a little bit, I found out a small bit. However I found little regarding how they actually evolved and started drawing conclusions from various "x vs...
