This is something people may not give some attention but, its really nice to code with a nice, readable font type. I love the Ubuntu’s Gedit Monospace font, and have been using it for some time now. Today I wanted to change. I’m now using Consolas 10pt.
Happy New Year everyone! Its a new year, and a new month, with the ending of December’s Art Theme with 29 “Best Of The Net” Submissions, its time for 100 Things to kick in!
So what can you do with only 100 visible sprites/entities/you name it on screen at the same time?
My first windows mobile was a HTC Trinity (P3600), really nice device, I traded it for a PSP. Bad thing to do… Anyway, I have just received my new Windows Mobile Device! A HTC Touch Diamond (P3700). A even better device!
I was making some applications for it, and now I can test it daily! It’s been a long time since I’ve had a WM. And its only when you lose it that you miss it. It feels good to have that back.
So now, I’ll try to do stuff for WM, maybe selling some useful apps.
Derek Yu just released Spelunky’s Source Code bundled with its Source Code for Game Maker 8.0. Be sure to download this amazing game. This version has a lot of bugs fixed and has extended stats.
Start playing and making mods for Spelunky! Source and Downloads.
After learning how to use and create WinForm applications I downloaded the Windows Mobile SDK, and started to make a little application. I’m almost finished.
It called MoneyMemo, and it will be used to manage your money. Where you spend it and how. So you know exactly when and why you spent money. It will be released for Win Mobile for now, and then a bigger application will be available for Windows PC.
Have Fun.
Merry Christmass and have a Happy New Year!
I’ve been learning basic thing about the usage of .Net Framework. Basically making small WinForm Application . I like it. But I think it’s visually limited compared to Qt.
Qt is cool, but now I don’t have the time to nor the will to get back to it where I left…
I recently found that C# is the best thing to learn.
1 – Microsoft supports it, that means, best documentation, best community, best software for development, best software.
2 – Multi-Platform! Runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, and others. ( Mono ).
3 – If you want to make apps, make them. If you prefer games, make them too, with XNA!!.
So basically. I’ve been digging the msdn library and learning the language, and Windows Forms. I’m getting pretty good now. This will help me make better games with XNA too, so, its win win…
