Dynamic Foliage!
Well… technically speaking. The palm trees spawn in random locations around the edges.
“Island” Is a Robotron clone created in two weeks for the IG300 course component for my Diploma of Interactive Gaming. It marks my first foray into 3D games, using a custom-built engine I compiled whilst learning DirectX.
Scrolling Textures, Xbox 360 controller support, and a multitude of game-play features were required.
Again, couldn’t resist adding a co-op mode. Also real happy with the way the 3D menu turned out, considering that I spent a single day working on it.
