Random irrelevance that just didn't fit into other forums. Talk about anything.

I used to live in southern New Jersey; I've been to Delaware several times. Slaughter Beach was just the most recent/most awesome. In that "we're going to die" way.

Speaking of eastern U.S. states, I've never seen someone so excited about PA. :lol: Welcome! Looks like you got some cool stuff going on with your game. Though I must say, I see a lot of vids in that style, and I'm always disappointed when no one is talking about what's going on in the video! For the most part, the code is barely-to-not readable, and even if it was, looking at pieces of code doesn't say much. Get some voiceover in there and describe what's going on; it makes it a lot more interesting to watch!

I checked out your Youtube channel and you seem to have done a little bit of DS homebrew. What SDK do you use?

LibNDS ;)

Hi I'm Zachary. I umm... uh... Oh yeah, I am currently learning some C++ and I want to be a game developer. I've watched the Adventures in Game Development videos for awhile, so I thought I would join these forums :)

My name's Michael Lukiman, and I'm currently 14 years old.
I love to design games and create things altogether.
Since, I'm young, i'm still learning a lot of things, and that's why im joining these game-dev communites; to learn and receive input.
I play guitar, piano, and like to sing...badly.
Yeayuh, I live in southern california. ;)

You know the first time I saw the term "PSX" I thought to myself "yeah man PSX sounds way cooler than PS3".

I'm pretty sure that was before I took algrebra. :lol:

The Psx is definitively my favorite console ever, and not just because of its games.

Hello everyone, I'm new. I recently started learning C++ with Opengl, and the Adventures in Game Development have been a big inspiration. This forum looked pretty cool, so I decided to join.
