Dalanian Software
« on: April 03, 2011, 06:57:51 pm »
Well, I was fooling around with stuff today, and I made the "Dalanian Software" logo program, with the logo and program attached (yes Dalanian Soft is by me, and is sponsoring the projects "Trio and Niko: Falling" and "Pyyrix II")

What'cha thinks?  ;D

AND PS, this is like a logo right before the game starts ;)

It's kinda slow to start up, IMHO.  Maybe a little faster?

I agree, seems a bit slow. Or make it appear only the first time the game is run, then disable it for future runs.

hmm, that's a good point, I'll see how I might speed it up -- though those trig functions drawing the circle are on Full speed already x.x

O.o

What about precalculated positions? You only need a quarter of the circle, anyway (an eighth if you're é1337 enough).

hmm, good point, or maybe I'll draw the 4 level scene every 4 pixels instead of every single one? :P

The actual logo itself looks really nice though.
* Deep Thought should try making one of his own...

I just sped it up, and made the circle go only 2/3rds of the way around, to add a sexier appeal :)

That looks nice. As alternative to increased speed, maybe the ability to skip the logo? Also how much space does it takes?

The logo only takes 1k, and since I'm sure I'll have tons of misc space on page 2, itll fit nicely :)

Also, I sped it up, only about 2 seconds to draw now :) nd it only draws a cool semicircle now, and it looks awesome :D

Nice, shouldn't be too bad.

For some reasons it reminds me the WHX logo that my Mystique Dragon Tears co-author/founder used, although it was way simple. I think it was just Circle() with small regular text. :P Idk why it reminded me of that O.o

Nice. Actually, I was thinking of something similar for another idea I had...

Nice, is there a way to make it open only when the program is first ran? Otherwise, it's quite boring to wait to play :P

thepenguin77 does an ID check to see if the program's been run before in his Chess game. You could ask him for help.
