    Artillery Game Tutorial: Part 4 - Ready, Aim, Fire!

    Hey everyone, it's been over a year delay, but I've finally got Part 4 of my tutorial series written and published here on PGD!

    For those that are new to the series; It's about making an artillery game. I break up the game into several lessons for easy consumption and try my best to show you how it's done. It might be the best way to do it and it isn't really all that highly technical in comparison to newer versions of the genre, but it's a pretty good base to build up your knowledge and your own way to do the different things with it.

    My new lesson is 'Ready, Aim, Fire!' which teaches you how to get your tanks to Aim and then Fire a shot object taking both the screen and dirt into account.


    Check it out here!

    Artillery Game Tutorial: Part 4 - Ready, Aim, Fire!

    Thanks! I started writing these with them in mind. JEDI-SDL is a great little library for making SDL games. Plus this series gives something fairly simple to start on as beginners moving on to more complex stuff later on.

    If nothing else it gives me an excuse to make and release low quality games. :lol:
