Two weeks of programming

Well, it’s been two weeks since my last post, so I’ll go through what I’ve done the past weeks.
Last week we were introduced to network programming, which I’m very interested in and have been ever since I played Diablo II with my best friend, wanting to learn how it ticked.
It isn’t my first contact with networking in practice or theory, back in high-school I went to a networking course where we learned the OSI-model among others. even if it was […]

Back to programming!

So I’ve not been programming much the past few months, and this Monday we got a wake-up call with a sudden contest; we were to make a program that compress an image and then decompress it to it’s original state. I came to the same conclusion as the others within a few minutes after looking at the image, break it down into blocks of identical pixels, check the next pixel with the previous to see if they match. Then count […]

System analysis of Arkham Horror

Week 3, and our second game to analyse, Arkham Horror. I was sceptic that I would like the game, as the only time I have heard “Arkham” have been in the Batman series, which I am not too fond of. I was gladly surprised to see they got no connection what-so-ever, and I actually enjoyed this game quite a lot (though the games could drag on for a very long time).
The game is a co-op turn-based PvE. I will go […]

System analysis of Capitals

Introduction
Our group (3) played Capitals, a tabletop card game, where you race to build 8 (or 7) districts and have the highest score at the end. To achieve this, you get to choose among 9 different heroes (with a set of 2 different heroes ranged from 1 to 9), the lower the number, the earlier you get to play your hand.
When it is your turn to play (unless you’re assassinated), you get to choose an action, which is either draw […]

Week 9 – With Intent

Almost at the release, and that persistent sickness that haunted me last week is now gone, which means my productivity increased as well.
This week I’ve mostly been working with the SoundManager (or more accurately: the SoundEntity and MusicEntity), the version we had was working up ti’ll Beta, but in the final, we need a listener for the sound, otherwise the sound of the guards steps would be heard from anywhere on the map, that would just be…. strange.
Now to the […]

Week 8 – With Intent

Hello and welcome back, The last week has been a real pain in the ass. I believe I mentioned last week that I got some work to do the then upcoming weekend, I did, and received my payment for it. This also means that I was pre-occupied this weekend and thus my productivity reached a minimum.
This monday I already started to feel the cold lingering closer to it’s eruption point, I had hoped that it wouldn’t break out, and if […]
