Im creating a new game, and a SDL engine with it and I want to share my experiences and thoughts on it, as well as get some feedback. I've been working on this project for 3 days( a few hours each ), and I'm happy with the progress and still highly motivated.

You have some really cool projects man. Keep up the awesome work. Also, major props for the Battle on the Big Bridge (battle with Gilgamesh) audio track from Final Fantasy V. I fucking love that song.

Update #3:
Lazy update for those interested. Read the video description at youtube.com for my full explanation. I haven't quit making videos or doing programming, but atm I don't have a lot of time. I did this some time ago and uploaded a vid of it today:
-New enemy: Ghoul
-Tried out a new way to do loading/drawing of sprites but failed miserably and used hours to make the old system function again. ( )
-Fixed 1 Major Memory leak (Leaked object every drawn frame)
-Found more nasty memory leaks.
