The Game Of Life

One of my tasks in game design this week was to make a version of Conway's Game of Life. If you do not know what this is then check out the wiki page here.

By clicking on the spaces you want to make populated you can trigger awesome chain reaction.

In my version you press the space bar to continue to the next stage in the reaction.

Download my spin on "The Game Of Life" here. Have a play around with it.

Took me a few hours in the labs today. I'm pretty happy i have got it done because now i can do other subjects work with the rest of the week.

Programming Gangster Rap Battle

Here is the transcripts to a 3 way gangster rap battle that occured between 3 of my friends all doing computer games programming. This had to be shared.


Luke: Luke 's lyrics are strongly typed, like his XNA crew, return that boolean method 'cause you know it be true.

Matt: Brother you be clownin' if you returning by value, you need it done by reference, you gotta add it to the stack queue, if all of what i'm saying here is getting you annoyed, dawg you know it just because you should return VOID. Brrrrap!

Tom: I see you and him together, theres a compile error,
let me set and get this dictatorship, lets encapsuslate our relationship,
XNA go run home to your mother, the c++ crew will overflow your buffer!
BOOOM

Luke: It's my turn again and I'm comin' in sick, spit some bars initialized with the sizeof(array) trick. But don't be thinkin' that I'm playin' when I referencin' my vars, 'cause the numbers that I've murdered can't be stored in 10 chars.
Bitch

Tom: you better start running cos' ill start to cout << "pain" <<
and ill endl; that shit so you wont be seen again
so just run home done be messing with me
next time yo u wont be so lucky when i #include iostream

Matt: Yo dude,
Your arrays are weak like like your program validation, you better use List(T) to store your information, I'm talking C# baby - Yoda say it ain't plusplus, he say use XNA to program games, you must.
Now listen up here, you just jealous of my flow, no man, not my rap I mean my coding, y'all know.
Long time hustler I take all my dreams in code, I don't get no errors, just compile, link, load.

Tom: Yo there brother, ill use a structure,
then ill use it in my main to switch from one function to another,
You must be insane, to use XNA,
so just go sit in your corner and make your crappy battleship game.
c++ is the way forward, making games are intense
you are so retarded, you have to use intellisense

Matt: I'm nerdcore-X, easy spitting hexadecimal,
Hit you with assembly, comin' in like an animal,
You're out of your depth man, you know it's easy to see,
00, 0F, 5A, 3C,
coming in faster than yo momma at a cake sale,
In the words of James Binge, yo bro, I think 'You Fail.'

*Tom admits defeat*

Luke: Your asm code needs re-thinkin' Bro,
So google a tutorial while I stir up the flow
While you're messin' about learning simple structs,
My multithreading skills are rewriting the books
Yeah, you can't mess with me, sick XNA MC,
Mix it up like a Random, I think you know what I mean?
You tried pretty hard, but it's just how it goes,
So I'll finish this battle with a Fordham.Dispose();




This was truly a nerdcore moment to remember.
Big up the Derby Uni Massive! BRAP!

XNA Pool

Here is what i handed in to my course leader. Its by no means a complete game, just a tech demo of the balls and pockets.

If u wish to play around with it then you will need 2 plug a wired Xbox 360 controller into your PC teh press A to move the white ball around.

Download the game here

I didn't want to carry on making this pool game so it has been ditched witht he rest of the rubbish programs i have made. I am currently working on a XNA game set in space! more news on that soon.
