XNA RPG - Learning XNA while building a RPG, a 26 part tutorial series | Coding4Fun Blog. E3 2011 is a little more than a month away, the expo where nearly all the cool gaming news comes out. There's rumors that there's news coming about development "stuff" for the XBox 360 and E3 seems like the logical time for that news to be released. To give you a leg up and help you catch that wave, today's post is curtsey of Jamie McMahon and his very cool XNA Game Programming Adventures, XNA 4.0 RPG Tutorials series.
The series takes you from install to a playable 2D RPG with each in the series building on the last. The tutorial includes not only building the game but a game/level editor too. Part 1 - Getting StatedThis first tutorial is about getting started with the role playing game, Eyes of the Dragon. I create the basic project, two class libraries, and some components that will be used through out the rest of the tutorials....Part 4 - Tile EngineThe forth tutorial is about adding in a tile engine for the game. Here's a Solution snip from the Part 26 code. Channel 9: Videos about the people building Microsoft Products & Services.

Updates to this article that indicate the "last updated" date and provide a dated list of changes will be provided at Code examples in this article often show the return value of a function call or its output in a line comment (begins with a semicolon) followed by "->" and the result. (+ 1 2) ; showing return value -> 3 (println "Hello") ; return value is nil, showing output -> Hello Functional Programming Functional programming is a style of programming that emphasizes "first-class" functions that are "pure".

Clojure Entity Component System | resatori. Overview This link gives a great introduction to an entity component system.My system just evolved out of need and contains only features that I needed in my game. The System An entity consists of multiple components and nothing else. A component is just a map which also holds the :entity-id and its :type.
Creating an Entity We will start off by creating some components for the entity. As you can see, create-comp allows multiple maps as its argument and does not allow overwriting of keys. Components support three special keys: :init, :destroy and :depends. :init and :destroy takes a function in the form of (fn [entity]) and is called when the entity is created or removed from game. This is very useful for example when interacting with the cell-grid of the game-map. :depends checks for dependencies to other components and throws an error when an entity is created with unfulfilled dependencies. There is also a defcomponent macro, which helps creating components. So now lets create our entity! Code. Planet Clojure.
