No, neither word is in the dictionary. I spelled it just fine :)

Hi yall! I made a little fighting game Pajamorama that just came out on Xbox 360. It's a smash-style fighter with online multiplayer and everything. Since this is a smash-themed board, I thought you guys might like it. From the description: It's only 80 points. That's like less than a...

I'm a c# monster, but I don't know if I can help you because I don't know what your question is. Que?

Well, personally if I were going to work on this project, I'd like the design document to be fleshed out a little more. Like what will the menu flow be? What do the characters look like? What are their moves like? Why are both x & y mapped to "jump"? What file format are resources in...

looks pretty cool! I'm already working on my own little smash clone in XNA, so I don't really have any time to contribute, but good luck!

hahaha yeah they're all basically the same anyway, just different syntax ;)

C# is a pretty good starting language. Its much easier than c++, you don't really have to worry about things like pointers and dynamic memory management. Personally, I think its easier to learn a programming language is your doing something fun like writing a game, and XNA is AWESOME. To...

The parameters for the call to GameSetup() have to match the function footprint. So you'll need to pass in a reference to a Player object, a reference to a Coordinate object, and a 2d array of bools of size SIZExSIZE. int main() { bool tiles[SIZE][SIZE]; Player myPlayer; Coordinate...

Hey I've seen this! 99.999999% of the time it means you have a floppy disk in the disk drive. Computers always try to boot from the floppy first. Check if there's a disk in there and eject it. If that fixes the problem, you owe me $300 lol

Naw dude, you can detect input strings in one frame, but it depends on the type of input string though. You won't be able to determine like quarter-circles in one frame, because the input needs to be in a certain order. (i don't think you'd want to anyways, nobody can do qcf+p in one...

Well, like there are two types of input: immediate and buffered. In directx for keyboard immediate mode when you are going through the game loop every frame you call a function and it fills an array of roughly size 104 with the status of each key on the keyboard (since directx interfaces...

Dude, I don't think anyone is going to be interested in helping you with your game. Anyone with the necessary skills to write a smash-clone is probably working on one of their own projects.

Teeth was one of the funniest movies I've seen all year. Can't wait for the dvd!

lol, that's like every job ever, not just computer programming. but yeah, if you're only interested in makin money, go into a medical field, that's where the sure bet is gonna be. There'll always be programming jobs though. Especially since the whole software industry is moving towards...

The problem is that those game design jobs are super, super competitive. Everyone wants to be a designer and there aren't a lot of positions available. It totally isn't true, I don't know what that dude is talking about. There aren't any better computer jobs than being a kickass rock&roll...
