WILDERLAND (WL) allows you to see what’s REALLY going on in this wonderful world created by Veronika Megler and Philip Mitchell in 1982 at Melbourne House. It runs the original game code in a rudimentary Spectrum emulator, while displaying the state of objects and animals, the current positions of the latter, and a log what all the other creatures (NPC) do while Bilbo is in one place.

Learning Three.js: Augmented Reality 3D Pong
This post presents a livecoding screencast of Augmented Reality 3D Pong. This is an experiment to use augmented gestures as a way to interact with game. So i picked a game classic “pong”. We gonna learn how to code a pong in augmented reality with webgl. The result code is only 100lines!! Nice for augmented reality + webgl + a game 🙂
The goal of this project is to create an Infinite Randomish Universe within which the player explores, quests, fights, loots, equips, levels and more.
Mystik RPG – An open-source Java 2D Tile RPG Engine
Mystik RPG’s goal is to become a great Java 2D Tile RPG Engine. It boasts multiple maps, configurable maps in JSON, local content storage, monsters and more! You can start by either downloading the GitHub repo for faster, offline playability, and dissect the game, play with the map editor, or play directly from the browser!
Matt’s Webcorner – Direct3D 9.0 API Interceptor
This is a program that intercepts all Direct3D 9 (D3D9) commands issued by a running application. These commands are then dispatched to a separate program that interprets and responds to them. The commands can be forwarded to the operating system, discarded, or modified as desired.
Mibbu gives you everything you need for fast prototyping your Javascript game in just 4.35KB of code. Games created with Mibbu can be displayed using Canvas or DOM mode (you can change it with one single function, or use feature detection to use DOM where it is n canvas, like in IE family).
Making Games with JavaScript and Crafty
The day has come where JavaScript games are possible and not only possible but simple. This article will show you how easy it is to create games in JavaScript using the canvas tag and even basic divs with the help of a new game engine called Crafty.

Another World (or, Out of This World) is a wonderful game developed by Eric Chahi and released in 1991.
I have some kind of obsession with this game. During the years, I ported various versions of the game (3DO, PC, hires) to a handful of platforms: PSP, PS2, GBA and PC. Here is my new pure Javascript implementation. No plugins, no ActiveX, no Flash. Just need a modern browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera) and you’re good to go.
Libgdx offers modules for graphics via OpenGL ES, audio, input and file i/o as well as a full Box2D JNI wrapper especially suited for Android. All modules abstract away system specifics so you can execute the same code on the desktop and Android.
Using genetic algorithms to find Starcraft 2 build orders
Over on a forum called teamliquid, a user by the name of Lomilar posted a fairly long thread about a program he had written that optimized build orders for the zerg race in starcraft. He eventually cleaned up his code and posted the code to googlecode. The program is called EvolutionChamber (a clever name, as it’s the name of one of the buildings in the game), and it uses genetic algorithms to find build orders.
