GAME TEMPLATE

• game template
  • overview
    • skeleton for simple physically-based 3D video games
    • equivalent templates for use in C++ or (pure) Python
    • 608 lines of C++, fewer in Python (with comments and example game)
    • create games by modifying template, not starting from scratch, all one file
    • no hidded complexity, means more complex games get messy quickly
  • libraries
    • OpenGL (Graphics)
    • ODE (physics)
    • SDL (sound, input, windowing, image utilities)
  • uses at UCSC
    • game design seminar
      • "the.discrete.gardener"

      • "i loves me sum"
    • cmps160
      • "Charles Leg V"???

        • a rather silly virtual world that you interact with by moving around in the real world while wearing motion capture tracers

          construct boxes, pile them up, knock them over

          go "first person" with a tracked camera view
