Finally got to a quite complete version of my demake for miniLD-50: Starcraft Demake!<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m still using Flash, but some notable things I experimented with this time:
\n – Player.IO: I incorporated the multiplayer API of player.io (now under Yahoo). It’s pretty good! I had to work on my forgotten C# skills but was able to implement the client and server side by side, upload the server code and have it run flawlessly. This is one of the smoothest workflow I had working on a multiplayer game, and that’s probably why it’s the only multiplayer game I feel I completed successfully.<\/p>\n

– Pixel Dorado: Also experimented with doing the art with this drawing program I made. It’s not released yet. I used to do art in Flash, but I found that I’m not a great vector artist, especially without any tools like wacom tablets, ect… I made this drawing tool so I can feel comfortable drawing. It’s called Pixel Dorado, it has no colors but it fits well my need.<\/p>\n

Anyway, check it out. It’s Starcraft watered down, but it’s still multiplayer!<\/p>\n
