Was released not long ago. Here is a good example of just what it can do: http://unity3d.com/gallery/live-demos/index.html#bootcamp

So, considering that Project Raindrop is pretty much dead or at least is bedridden, why don't we challenge ourselves and try and make something half decent out of Unity. Here is the download link for Unity 3: http://unity3d.com/unity/

Come on everyone, why don't we push forward and do something a little different?

P.S. The servers are a little overloaded at the moment and registration is mucking up a little bit.

Ah yes, about Project Raindrop. Since I've come back to Uni, I've been quite busy (as many of you can probably tell). But there's still a chance that it will continue.

If you want to make something in Unity, you have my full support. Although I'm not sure I can consistently partake in the project -due to Uni, but I can provide help anyway I can.

Why I need to learn C++ and other coding languages.

I recall you (or someone) posting that before. But I forgot about Unity completely, may give it a shot after the exams.

Oh yeah doy, wallross did. Except his version was a bit older (at the time of post)

pacman breakout or donkey kong.

Breakout would probably seem easiest, frankly. But I think Donkey Kong would prove an interesting challenge.

Specially in 3d platformer version (not that Nintendo hasn't already done that... they did 2.5d too.)

I need to learn C++ first anyways.

You mean the original 'Jumpman' Donkey Kong? this one?

Not in cruelty
Not in wrath
the Reaper came today.

An angel visited
this gray path
And took the cube away.

That's what I think they mean.

One thing that'd be interesting to think about, if you try to make Donkey Kong, is how to operate the barrels. You could make them physics-based so they bounce in more realistic (and unique) ways. Or you could script it (the easier way, I think).

But each way has it's own limitations and challenges. That's why I love programming, there's so many ways to do one thing and they can all be right.

Unity has built in physics engine, I would have to code to make it ignore the z axis. Also it annoys me how slow Mario moves in that game so that would have to change. 2.5d it would be.

Now to go buy a 50$ book on C++.

Umm, Matt, beofre you do that though, I think unity only uses Boo, JavaScript, and C#. No C++ I don't think...

If you have to use C++ why not mod Half-Life 2?

Upon further research:

Game Scripting via Mono. Scripting is built on Mono, the open source implementation of the .NET Framework. Programmers can use UnityScript (a custom language with JavaScript-inspired syntax), C# or Boo (which has a Python-inspired syntax).
