A question for the community

By bart on 6 October 2009 - 1:53pm

Hello again, FOSS Gaming Community!

I don't know about anybody else, but I for one have old code lying around from projects that never quite came to fruition.  For instance, I have, right now, sitting on this very hard drive, some code for a 2D platformer (highly optimized -- 400 enemies on screen at once back when my machine only ran at 400mhz), some code for a top-down 2D RPG engine based on the aforementioned platformer code, and finally some code for the beginnings of a 3D space strategy game (check out a brief video of it here).

Here's my question: Is there anywhere out there that serves as a searchable dump for old code?  Mind you, I'm not talking about project management sites like SourceForge and its ilk, but rather a place I could drop of my old code without the expectation of anyone maintaining it, so that maybe someone in the future could come along and use it for their own nefarious purposes.  In particular, this site would need be searchable, much like OGA is right now -- there's not much point in dumping my code somewhere if no one will ever find it anyway.  There needs to be a way to disseminate it to interested parties.

So, is there a site out there that does this?  If not, is this something that people would be interested in?  Do you have old code that other people might be interested in?  Would you be interested in my old code (or someone else's)?  Please stop by and leave your comments.  I'd really like to hear what people think about this.

Peace,

Bart

CODE:FREE Magazine

By bart on 30 September 2009 - 8:56am

I highly recommend checking out CODE:FREE Magazine, which is an online magazine that showcases art made with Free / Open Source software, such as Xara, Glips, Krita, K-3D, 3D Canvas, Gogh, Blender, and others.  While it's not game-specific, it's a great way to see what kinds of art people are producing with Open Source software.

Tell us about your game project!

By bart on 23 September 2009 - 10:06am

We're getting a lot of new visitors today.  If you like what you see, perhaps you can help give the community some direction.  Why not leave a post on our forum and plug your game project (regardless of whether it's a mature, well-established project, just a twinkle in your eye, or anything in between).  Tell us about it.  Let us know what kind of art you're looking for.  We'd love a chance to serve the community better. :)

Peace,

Bart

Take a couple of minutes right now and help OpenGameArt.org grow!

By bart on 15 September 2009 - 9:48am

Hey folks!

If you're reading this entry, why not take a minute or two to upload something to OGA?  I'd like to expand our sound archive a bit, so why not contribute a sound?  Here are a couple things you could do:

  • If you have a mic, find a cool sound in the room with you and record it.
  • For a quicker approach, head over to pdsounds, find something cool, and download it.
  • Optionally, fire up a sound processing program like Audacity or Ardour and mess around with the sound until you have something even cooler.

When you're done, submit it to the site.  If you're submitting someone else's work (or something based on someone else's work), please credit them appropriately.

Thanks!

Bart

P.S.  If you're not feeling creatively inclined, you can also donate to OGA to help us commission more art. :)

Mini-contest results

By bart on 8 September 2009 - 1:54pm

First, a quick postmortem.  I clearly didn't give the Mini-contest enough time for the news to get around.  People heard about it, but mostly after it had ended, which means we got very few entries.  However, the entries we did get, while few in number, are quite good.  All entries are judged for creativity, execution, and effort, on a scale of 1 to 5.  Here they are:

Little Shrooms, by Blarumyrran

http://opengameart.org/sites/default/files/images/littleshrooms.png

These are the oddest looking mushrooms I've ever seen.  They almost look like miniature trees.  A very cool and creative concept.  The downside is that the colors look a little desaturated compared to the tileset they'll be included in.  This isn't a serious complaint, and it should be easy to fix.

Creativity: 5
Execution: 4
Effort: 4
TOTAL: 13

Bush, by qubodup

http://opengameart.org/sites/default/files/qubodup-bush.png

A solid bush that fits in well with the color palette.  I'm particularly fond of the shading, which is executed very well.  On the downside, it lacks a shadow, although again this is a fairly small complaint. 

Creativity: 3
Execution: 4
Effort: 5
TOTAL: 12

Bush with Berries, by qubodup

http://opengameart.org/sites/default/files/qubodup-bush_berries.png

As above, but with berries.  Honestlly, they're too big, and they don't feel like they're really part of the bush itself.

Creativity: 3
Execution: 3
Effort: 5
TOTAL: 11

FINAL RESULTS:

1. Little Shrooms, by Blarumyrran
2. Bush, by qubodup
3. Bush with Berries, by qubodup
