Well, nothing was planned, but I think it was expected that some of the people who "graduated" from the program would eventually form one or more teams and try to make something a little more ambitious than, say, Tetris. Something more than a few people would actually want to play for more than a short while (I'm not picking on Tetris by the way, just using it to illustrate a point).

I also want to make something SF. Currently I finished on writing a SF book, so I have at least a lore to build on, but first I have to past school exams and get familiar with FPS games in unity. I could possibly do something in SDL since I wrote a library to use it with OGL with ease, but I suck with 2D art :( so many ideas and no team :/

jesus christ man... :-/ well i don't really bow to god or anything like that but i can't come up with a better expression... :) so basically this thread exists for 3 years... and nothing happened? o.O if you're interested in what i done however, in university i improved a classic algorithm called "metoda lespezilor" - name's in romanian and i couldn't find the original name in english.. it's an algorithm which must determine the position of a point in a PSLG - planar straight line graph. there's another alg called "metoda lanturilor" or the chain method, whatever - this one is fully automatic so it's ok. but for the first algorithm, the programmer must create a DCEL matrix all by himself - doubly connected edged list, just a data structure. the problem is that this matrix can't be calculated by the computer mkay? so i did something different - hard to explain but i made the whole algorithm auto. i made a java program in JCreator pro 4.5 with visual interface, you can draw, edit the graph etc. and i got 10 in exam just for this program.. i also made 3 little games - an .exe in TASM turbo assembler with a stupid man and you had to move him through a stupid labyrinth. the walls in the lab were only horizontal or vertical - they were written in 2 arrays - one for the x axis, another for y. and then i made 2 other browser games in javascript.. Perpsico and Brix. in perspico you could play against the computer and i made it "think" using the least cost branch and bound algorithm. it's a good choice but the complexity grows exponentially since it uses a tree for moves - so if you try to randomize the initial configuration in more than 15-16 moves, it's going to take a long time until the alg finishes. whatever.. and in Brix i learned to use XML files for storing the maps of the game - which were only 2 since i made them only for testing. as for C++ i'm just a noob mkay?.. i began reading "thinking in c++" by bruce eckel but i never finished it. and if you even ask us to learn C#, i never used it, i don't think i like the idea so i'm not going to even try. :( as a matter of fact, honestly, i don't even know if i want to help at all because even on this site people began to troll me... if you look on forum i made a thread mkay? and everybody joined for the trollfest.. but maybe i could look on your code or whatever - be more like a tester than a programmer.. maybe i should show you at least my 2 stupid browser games but site was taken down recently for inactivity. if you show me a mail however, i can send......................................................... :-/
