GeekWars! available on the AppStore

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

Today GeekWars! has been approved on the AppStore.

GeekWars! is an arcade game based on: Rock, Paper, Scissors but with two new elements: Spock and Lizard.

The rules are simple, each element can beat two other elements, draw or lose himself with the two remaining elements.

But it is not what it seems, there is not a turn-based game or anything like that, it is a shot'em up where you have to shoot quickly the appropriate element for each of the enemies that come in waves.

The game has exceptional music and graphics.

Here you can see a video:

LittleGame new update

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

Apple has finally accepted our updated “LittleGame for iPad” (since late July).

The problem was that Apple initially accepted the name “LittleGame iPad”, but later decided that this name was invalid and we had to change it. But we are not allowed to change the name of an application that was on sale! Finally, after more than two months and after talking with three different departments of Apple, they has allowed us to upload an update with a valid name: “LittleGame for iPad.”

Hope you enjoy!

Today is the Tesla's birthday

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

From Lucera we invite you to read the biography of this great genius of mankind.

There are a lot of resources on the web about how this great genius was fooled again and again, to start we leave you the wikipedia link, but we invite you to do a little research on your own:

Windows Phone 7

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

This week we are in Barcelona getting a course on Microsoft's future mobile: Windows Phone 7.


Currently it looks awesome, especially the Expression Blend tool, which allows you to create applications for WPF, Silverlight and the future Windows Phone 7. I will mention that, for now you have to install a plug-in to compile apps for the Windows Phone 7 emulator, but at the end of this year a special free version will be available to do it.

This plugin includes an emulator that works pretty well, despite it is a bit slow starting the operating system.

The downside is that you can only program for the future mobile in C#, so that if we want to see our games in this new device, we would have to port both our game engine and the games themselves to C#, which does not look pretty feasible at this moment (We'll see it).

Upcoming release of Invisible Runner

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

‘Invisible Runner’ is a platform game where the character is invisible. The player must go through 25 levels full of surprises using his skill and intuition, with the help of some items that will provide visibility to the character for a few seconds.

OpenGL Wrap

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

OpenGL has several ways to set the texture mapping, one of the most interesting is called ‘Wrap’ (GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_?) This feature indicates how that is going to repeat the texture or be mixed with the border color when they exceed the specified coordinates [0, 1].

Here we offer a brief description of the various wrap modes in OpenGL:

• GL_CLAMP: Clamps the texture coordinate in the [0,1] range. In the limits the color of texture is combined with the color of the edge.
• GL_REPEAT: Ignores the integer portion of the texture coordinate, only the fractional part is used, which creates a repeating pattern. This is the default value.
• GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE: Sets the texture coordinates to [1/2N] (where N is the size of the texture) texels within the texture. This prevents to draw the border color. Available since OpenGL 1.2.
• GL_CLAMP_TO_BORDER: Sets the texture coordinates to [1/2N] (where N is the size of the texture) texels outside the texture. This allows to draw the border color without mixing with the texture color. Available since OpenGL 1.3.
• GL_MIRRORED_REPEAT: The coordinates are set to the fractional part of the texture coordinate if the integer part is even; if the integer part is odd, then the texture coordinate is set to 1 – the fractional part of the texture coordinate. Available since OpenGL 1.4, or with GL_ARB_texture_mirrored_repeat extension, or since OpenGL ES 2.0, or with OES_texture_mirrored_repeat extension.

Since a picture is much more explanatory than any description, we believe it is better to add it to this mini tutorial.
 
Note: The sample image has the border color set to red (GL_TEXTURE_BORDER_COLOR) so you can well appreciate it.

Geek Wars!

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

Soon finally we will have our new game available for iPhone: Geek Wars!
A game that combines geek humor and some action, accompanied by some nice graphics.

Today is a great day for Geeky, he woke up early to be the first one in buying the new iPan. What he does not know is that there are many more geeks who have long queuing.

Will you be able to help Geeky to obtain his new iPan?

MindShake goes 3D

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

Once we have done CCustomMesh, the next logical step was to add 3D support for MindShake.

Now MindShake can mix sprites with 3D objects, and they behave the same way and you can happily mix them in each layer, add behaviors to them and so on.

CCustomMesh

(copied from our new blog, please visit it)

We've added a new object to CObjectLayer, it is a generic mesh. So, now you can mix sprites, texts and generic meshes in the same layer.

In addition, a mesh can be composed by submeshes, and you can assign different ways of rendering for each submesh: Points, Lines, LineStrip, LineLoop, Triangles, TriangleStrip and TriangleFan.

These meshes are fully editable and you can add and modify at any time: VertexPosition, VertexColor, VertexTextureCoords, VertexNormal. Finally, tell that the user can add VertexIndexes if the mesh is not linear.

Otherwise, it behaves like an ordinary sprite.

Our first app is out!

(copied from Lucera's blog)

This time is not a game. There were several companies asking us if we are able to do iPhone apps, and then we make this one.

WeightControl is an application to track your weight visually, making it the perfect complement for people starting a diet or sportmen who want to grow their muscular mass.

WeightControl is an application to track your weight visually, making it the perfect complement for people starting a diet or sportmen who want to grow their muscular mass.

WeightControl is designed for people who want to gain or lose weight, or just want to keep track of this. Thanks to the historical weight measurements you will see your progress, for weeks, months or years, easily graphically and can also observe the trend of your weight in certain moments in history. You can also view your weighing in a list, where you can watch the progress of your weight over time.

Another interesting aspect is the application that lets you define milestones to help motivate you to reach your ideal weight.

Finally, the units of measurement and targets can be easily changed in the application preferences.
