Menu Test video

I thought it about time I showed some sort of progress, so here’s a short video demonstrating the menu system my game engine has. The screens aren’t hard coded, the XML control file defines what screens the game has, how they link up and so on. Even the menu options and their actions are defined in the XML file too.

Now I’m making sprites work, which should make a more interesting video.

The video was captured using CamStudio, which is a neat OpenSource screen capture program. I was going to use Fraps like everyone else does, but it doesn’t seem to record Allegro games.

For reasons I don’t understand, embedding the video here doesn’t work. Instead you will need to click this link to see the video.

About James

I'm just a person who likes writing software in their spare time. I'm not an "indie games developer" and am not trying to escape my day job and live in the happy world of games dev. I'm more like one of those people that used to write games in their spare time in the 80s. My stuff would be PD or Shareware if this were the 80s or 90s. It's good to comment on the posts in here :)
