Ben_G has other projects, I think. Keep in mind that if you really want a project to remain active after the original author retires it, the best way is generally to learn how to maintain it yourself rather than asking others to do it :)

Of course if Ben wants to take Star Fox on, that'd be great. I'd love to see this project completed.

Yeah, I'm pretty much done, the only thing I might try is to make it full screen. Though, with my current knowledge, that's not possible, so we'll just have to wait on that.

You can build a statue out of either 1'x1' blocks or 12'x12' blocks. The 1'x1' blocks will take a lot longer, but the final product is worth it.

You could "stretch" the screen.  I modified Gemini that way like so:  I drew every horizontal line twice, and I drew every other vertical line twice.

Annoying Orange, I don't think you understand, full screen involves tweaking a few numbers and optimizing my grayscale routines and would probably take an hour or two if I knew exactly what I needed to do.

Health and enemies shooting at you requires:
  • A buffer system to handle enemy bullets
  • A collision routine to check if the enemy bullets hit the ship
  • Enemy artificial intelligence, (this involves calculating the angle between the enemies and the ship)


These are just the essentials, to make it worthwhile, I would also have to allow angled shooting from the main ship. And with all these additions comes a reduction in speed, which means I'd have to go back and optimize old stuff for speed.

All of this would take probably 6 hours to make with 2-3 hours of debugging since this is some complicated stuff, and that is quite a bit of time.


And annoyingOrange, please quit necro posting really old threads. I know of like 4 you've done this to now. Seeing a new post in no way makes me want to start working on it again. I work on stuff when I get a cool idea for it.


HotDog, No, I'd just render it to full screen. It wouldn't really even involve many changes, I just don't have the processor time right now.

I didn't even knew that this existed while i started working at my 3d engine, and when thepenguin77 showed me a screenshot of it, i thought that it was raycasting.
GO ben_g complete this!
Huh? Why me?

Querty.55 is right. Maybe i'll do it when one of my projects is completed, or when I'm really bored.
