That last WebGL is cool in many ways!



It's a mixed bag TBH.

On the desktop, Chrome V8 can run right up there with .Net, Java and Delphi in most scenarios, and I've occasionally seen it pull...

I'm planning to start a small free high score service, anyone interested?

This would be essentially to test DWScript Web Server, so I'm looking for games for the server with moderate high scores...

I'm afraid that means there won't be a "console" experience for end users (as in no fuss, no hacks, no worries, no instability), which might restrict its appeal to devs rather than the general...

Haven't found the time to update the game since the challenge (booh...)

Though thanks to node-webkit, there is now a standalone version available, grab the installer there...

Only just noticed! Congrats Paul!

Yes, but activity on those closed-source projects is unlikely to exhibit trends completely opposite to those of open source on the same language, while TIOBE f.i. can be fooled by synonyms (a rise in...

The trend for Pascal seems to have reversed in 2009-2010 (with D2009 being the first version "usable" since D7?), but this wasn't really noticeable until end of 2011.

Blog syndication ala DelphiFeeds, but more game oriented could be good too (not sure how much activity there really is though).
For IOTD, not sure what the site supports, but using pages and rss, it...

The same goes for just about every profession out there.

Not all of programming is art and science, arguably most of the programming jobs out there have more in common with repetitive factory jobs...

This was kinda inevitable IMHO, the same things happened a few decades ago with... cars. Back then every "hacker" was a mechanic, being able to disassemble a moby or a car engine, tweak it, etc....

Hmmm... the service I was using for global highscores in WarTrail is going down, access to the service was spotty last month, and they've now posted a notice that they're out of cash and are closing...

Any news on PGD challenge outcome? No news is good news?

Definitely.

A good idea isn't enough, you also need good style, good execution and good marketing/buzz.

The game mechanics of Angry Birds f.i. were not invented by Angry Birds, there have been...

Well that's changing, Google ChromeOS, MS Metro, node.js, that FireFox mobile OS and the direction of new Html5 specs, they are step by step being pitted against native code.

And Dan, there are...

It doesn't help that the website doesn't have any of the metas properly defined for SEO, the description meta contains just "home" f.i., which means the search crawler will figure out the summary on...

It depends on the problem and what is used to compile the native executables, f.i. on pure maths like the Mandelbrot set, FireFox and especially Chrome were giving Delphi XE2 a good sweating a few...

Both your snippets works on Android too under FireFox & Opera, with Opera having the edge.
The skinned mesh is obviously too much for my paltry phone gpu :/ but particles runs at a good frame rate....

Looks like the google summary was hacked/fooled/tricked somehow.
You can fix that via google webmaster tools, should probably be fixed ASAP :-/

Runs anywhere under Chrome 18+ (will fallback to software if hardware acceleration is not available)
Runs under FireFox if you have good enough drivers (DirectX or OpenGL)

On Android, it runs...

When are they planned for publication?

That's a bit of a leftover really, I meant to replace it with trophies/achievements, but haven't found the time yet (the trophy icons are already in the sprite sheet IIRC, just not used)

I won't be able to make use of the extra days, but I don't mind the deadline being extended :)

And yes, as Ingemar said, the theme involved some emphasis on content (3 distinct environments...

Oopsie, fixed a last minute bug, uploaded a "_fixed" version, should show as 0.1.3

Entry submitted!

Last version also playable at bit.ly/wartrail, preferably on Chrome, other browsers should work, but may not have best speed or all sounds.
