Hi,

Finally I have an update to share with you.  I’ve been working on collision for Adam Street, and it’s coming along nicely, but it still isn’t running fast enough for my needs.  So while I optimize that, I have been working on a few different projects.  One of the most promising is currently titled HardHat’s Battle Arena.

 In this game you will be able to pit your skills against other (AI) players.  Although if my son wants to play against me at some point, I may consider a two player mode.   And you just battle to defeat the other player.  It is based on MD2 characters, and so far it seems pretty promising.  Here are some screenshots of some of my tests.  It’s pretty plain so far, but I’ll be adding a particle engine and some more details to the terrain (maybe a tree and a fence).  The frame rate at this point is in the 100 to 120 (imaginary) fps, so I have enough to do some nice particle effects without too much slowdown I think.
