Why does it surprise you so? FreeBASIC has access to SDL, Allegro and OpenGL as well as other libraries such as GTK. It's not just a toy BASIC. |

If fb couldn't do that it wouldn't have its own webpage and community. The beauty of the language is that it hybridizes the object oriented power of C++ with the grammatical simplicity of QBasic. It rivals Python in every aspect.
Which makes me wonder... How old FreeBASIC? How long since the first release came out? |

Well, according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreeBASIC FreeBASIC is four years old. Not bad for what is relatively a short space of time! |

Actually, it's not very clear what the game is about from the video. A space shooter?
BTW, what will be then of Aphex?
I would like you to concentrate on a single project. |

i would like to concentrate on a single project too. this is really just a mini project to get back to programming since i havent touched code in 4 months while being out to sea. ive only been working on this for about 2 weeks now. and hopefully only for another day or so
@sslaxx: yes its opengl |

Putting &fmt=18 on the end of the YouTube URL makes a difference!
Both of those projects look great, Syn. Which is the closest to being complete? |

@sslaxx: prompt critical. it should be done within the next couple days. if not tomorrow.
basically all i have left are powerups, the boss, sound effects, title/exit screens
here are some current screenshots:
 
 
keep in mind everything in the games is 100% destroyable. all enemies, bullets, powerups will break apart and explode. even the environment |

| I was a bit hesitant from the first initial builds, but you've put some serious work into this game and it's shaping up quite nicely. I just hope you put all the small touches on it to make it really shine. Good work bro. |
