About
Despite the name, this not an "official" project.
And despite being called "game" it is not meant to be a game that is made to be fun to play.
It is also not a tech demo and not a graphic demo.
If you are looking for this sort of things, check out some other games
It is just knorke doing stuff and some people comment on it or give ideas.
Purpose
This is basically a "Hello World" Spring game.
The idea is that most tech-savvy people will hopefully understand the examples and with the help of this wiki can build on them.
Why not just use stuff from other games?
Most Spring games consist of hundreds of files, scripts can have thousands of lines of code. Some files are just wrong or outdated, comments are sparse etc.
That does not stop the games from working but this way they are not the best examples to learn from.
Sadly this wiki is also not that great. If you look at [[Units-UnitDefs] and try to find all tags you need for your first tank you will notice it is impossible.
So the idea of this "project" is to have a basic game with some simple examples.
Contact/Report a problem
Create an issue on the SVN or just post in the forum thread
Is it useable *right now* ?
You decide. To me it seems at least as good as similiar projects and it sure beats using zeroK/XTA/whatever as starting point.
There are just files! Why is there no guide to go along with this?
A good guide is this one by Ptsnoop
His "Empty Game" was also the base for this.
The main page for game making is this page.
