Making a game in C from scratch! Ep 08: [Programming a Particle System And Other Improvements]

Break Arcade Games Out (Open Source)
A downloadable game with source code for Windows

Hello everyone!

Last time around, we started to improve the game's feel.

On this stream, we go all in and create a particle system, solve several gameplay bugs and add more game feel releated feedback.

What this stream if you want to checkout the whole stream (where I explain what and why I'm doing certain elements in the game: everything from game design choices regarding speed, acceleration, player movement; animation and visual feedback; particles (of course); and programming! Let me know what you think!


In case you are interested, you can watch me live (and help me make the game!) on Twitch: twitch.tv/danzaidan

You can also watch the whole series on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTwh9oHcs1w&list=PL7Ej6SUky1357r-Lqf_nogZWHssXP-hvH


In case you don't have the time to watch the whole live stream, I have edited a highlights video that shows the most important moments of the development process (everything from game ideas, testing  and programming). Check it out below:



I hope you are enjoying it!

Next time, we'll go back to the engine and add a few missing things  that the game needs to getgud. :D

Thanks!
