3D Gamestudio Gamedevelopment 3DGS A6 A7 - free engine tutorials models shaders textures codes

While browsing the indiegamer forums i found a post about sfxr wich is a little tool that generates sound effects. You just select a category of sound effect like ‘laser’ or ‘powerup’ from the left hand side of the tool. Sfxr then generates a random sound effect of this type and let you play around with a lot of variations. After you’re finished you can save the resulting sound as .wav file.
I had a blast trying this tiny 48k! program, its so funny and you immediatly think you are sitting in front of your old tv-console. Download it here or browse over to the sfxr site.

Another mirror can be found here.

I just wanted to let you know, that iam quite happy with the release of the Marble Sheep Game the so far. The majority of comments was nice, thanks a lot for that. Also a big thanks to the first customer Kiyaku, check out his game Angelas World too.

If you want to show some love, you could digg the story at digg.com and help spread the word. I also posted a link over at Milk & Cookies wich you are welcome to rate. Of cause check out the free demo, if you haven’t alread.

For those of you curious about the download figures, i think after 3 days i got like ~700 downloads now and i just started to advertise here and there. I also received some awards for the game from various download sites. Lets see what will happen in the future… i’m now off to do some university studies, have a nice weekend!

Yeah it’s true, finally i was able to finish the game! The neverending game Marble Sheep, formerly known as Utz Wollewutz the marble madness clone is now available and ready for download on the Marble Sheep Website. Well it’s still starring Utz Wollewutz for those of you, who miss the cute name. I was so busy the last months finishing it up and struggling with university, that i had almost no time to update the blog. Big sorry for that, i hope to return to the high update frequency i had when starting the blog soon again. Uhhh… i can tell you i’m very exhausted but happy right now, that the whole thing is finished and i’m pretty satisfied with the results also.

You can buy the game for only 9,95 $ and support me, so i can continue to develop more casual games.
If you are broke like me, you can of cause just download and try the demo for free ~23MB.

If you have any questions regarding the game, feel free to drop me a line at the comments. I’m happy about any comments regarding the game. Oh i almost forgot to thank everyone involved in making the game, motivating me to finish it and so on… by the way here is a little YouTube video i made to show you the action, in case you don’t know if you should try the demo yet.

Again i can tell you about an announcement about a new version. This time its the public beta from 3DGS A6 from conitec, with the versionnumer 6.60. There are a lot of improvements that can be read in the release notes. You can download this beta here at the conitec server, you of cause need a valid full version of A6 and not a pirated warez version to download. I didnt have time yet to test it, because tomorrow i have to talk about “Serious Games” in my university. I will tell you about this later, because i think its an interesting topic - especially for indie game developers! Its not about general game development, “Serious Games” are games, meant to educate people out of secondary school. Developing games in this area is not so flooded with traditional game developers, so its a good opportunity for indies in my mind, but ill discuss this later a bit more.
