    Some Newbie C++ Help

    I've not been active in this forum in a long time now, I hope some of you still remember me :) Still waiting patiently for my Pandora to arrive and following PandoraPress through to the wonders of RSS. I've coded quite a lot in earlier years but never anything as complicated as C++. I'm not...

    Online Service

    I've just bought an Xbox 360 (because all my friends got one) and one of the best features in the Xbox Live Arcade. I can download a demo directly to the hard drive and play it. If I like the demo I can instantly buy the whole game, from within the game itself. While most games are priced a bit...

    Nub-Settings Video

    You can find the latest video from ED here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV_dnjBkImo Question: I like the setup of using the left nub to control the mouse and the right one for scrolling, will be great for web browsing. I recall you used the thumb buttons as home, end, pgup and pgdown. Are...

    Ed's Gamma Movie

    Personally I prefer the more colorful Sonic but it's hard to say since it's filmed and it probably looks different when you hold it in your hands. I would like to say that the blackness on the sides when playing Sonic looks much better then the movies Craig posted. This could have something to...

    Another Little Sdl Question

    It the last blog update I noticed this line: I also noticed that the SDL_SetVideoMode function have a SDL_HWSURFACE flag. I changed this in my game code for my screen surface and the program ran fine. Also did it with my SDL_CreateRGBSurface function (so far only used on one surface). So, I'm...

    One Great Indiegame You Should Try

    Here's a video review I got my laptop connected to my 32″ LCD TV, got 2 PS2 controllers connected to my laptop and a friend to share my couch with. We can easily play Pax Britannica 1-2 hours nonstop like this. Man is this game addictive. It’s so fast and fun so it’s like “I got to go, but just...

    Flash 10.1 Beta 2

    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplayer10/ I just heard about the beta 2 of Flash Player 10.1. It was apparently released in December. Why is this interesting? Because not only does it add GPU support but it also adds cross platform support with mobile devices in mind. I'm hoping thanks...

    Twitter

    I just signed up on twitter this morning because I'm a bit lazy when it comes to updating my blog. I've noticed that there are some apps available that works with Twitter, I was wondering if anyone knew of any good ones (the site is only so good) or any ones that could be ported to Pandora...

    What I Want To See On My Pandora

    I found this movie on YouTube. I tried a few of those games yesterday and I'm just amazed by the original stuff that all these indie developers do, check out Auditorium it's playable online. I also played through Star Guard yesterday, the gameplay feels a bit like Mega Man mixed with CaveStory...

    Found The Perfect Reviewer

    While surfing around YouTube I found a cute girl doing a review of a digital camera. She does more then that as she's into not only games but open source and Linux :) As of writing this clip about open source apps from 10 Oct got 115'853 views! That would be some pretty good exposure for the...

    Gmail Notification

    I just realized that this is the only thing I would miss from my laptop right now. When ever I get an email to my Gmail account a little box pops up telling me about it. Also the icon turns blue whenever I have unread messages. And some other features. I really want something similar running on...

    Pandora Sun Cap

    During the summer it would be great to bring the Pandora out to a park bench and enjoy the sun, but I doubt that would be a good experience. There are sun caps for laptops and monitors and I wonder what it would be like if there was one to attach to the Pandora lid. A foldable cap that fits in...

    Gravity Blocks

    With Pandora coming out soon I wanted to learn C++ and SDL. I've coded quite a bit before but not in C++ so I decided to start on a simple little game. Gravity Blocks is a puzzle game where you combine blocks of the same color. As the name implies you can shift the gravity but the game also have...

    Simple C++ Questinon

    I've been reading C++ tutorials and I got a question regarding Lazy Foo's SDL tutorials. In his 2nd lesson (and others) he sometimes writes 'SDL_Surface *variable' and sometimes 'SDL_Surface* variable'. Note the position of the *. Check the link below. I know that 'SDL_Surface *variable'...
