Shining Force Game Development Toolkit
Shuni from the Shining Force Central Forums has posted some exciting news:
Anyway, i’m currently working on something I would call a toolkit to creating shining force game using actionscript (Flash). I’ve offered my help for the community project but a lot of things are going on regarding the Game Engine there so I’m not sure I’ll be useful, and even so maybe some other people might like this.
I’ve got a solid tile engine running and i’m working on the things that matters most, the tools that goes with it, namely a map editor / animation editor / item database etc …
The project can be found at Google Code (shining-fluff-devkit), and contains some important bits and pieces for Shining developers including:
- System and text fonts
- Game state management
- Tile maps and sprites
- Menus
- …and much more!
An example project is also available so you can see what the engine is capable of, and even at this early stage it is looking impressive! It’s well worth checking out if you want to make your own Shining game.
