Shining Force PC source code now on Github
Here’s some great news for aspiring developers – bludragn has decided to release the full Shining Force PC source code onto GitHub.
I’ve decided to finally release the code for my old engine.
…
Hopefully it can be of use to anyone working on their own engine, or just curious as to how SFPC works. It’s possible I may come back to it to tinker again at some point, I’ve learned a lot in the years since I last touched it, but I don’t have the time or the motivation I once did to spend on it.
The project itself is written in C++, and can be built using Visual Studio 2010. The source contains everything from the 2012 summer update, which includes an A* path finding algorithm and a custom script engine. If you’re interested in creating your own Shining style project it’s well worth a look!
