Hello!
Lately I started wanting to make a 2d game... with other people!
Basic info:
-2d game
-Programmed in C++
-Using SDL for graphics, events, and networking
-Medieval shooter (here is a good example of this kind of games just think about it in the middle ages)
-Multiplayer
-Campaign and PvP modes
I would like to gather a few programmers (would need people to draw sprites later on, but first we need to make a basic engine) who know C++.
Requirements:
-You should know C++ (basic syntax, pointers, structs, classes, virtual methods, a bit about unions)
-Knowing about SDL from the beginning will help a lot
-Knowing about Sockets from the beginning will help a lot.
If you want to join but you don't think you know enough, here are a few sites which I found to be the best on the subjects:
Basic C++ tutorial
SDL tutorial
Sockets tutorial
Notice that from the three subjects, I consider sockets to be the most complicated when you are new to it, so don't be afraid to ask questions if you do not understand something.
Also notice that the sockets tutorial explains specifically about UNIX (Linux for example) operating systems, BUT, it is as useful for Windows or Mac sockets.
There aren't a lot of details because I want to create this game with YOU, which means we will all decide on the small details together.
Hope to hear from some people
