Single Player Eclipse

An Eclipse Base Single Player Engine!

It took me a bit of time to create this from scratch, i called it Eclipse Base because the loading and clearing game data's and game loop does exactly look the same as eclipse.. like gettickcount , gameloop , and some more things


Sorry english is not my main language and i was in a hurry when i'm posting this

Cool, I always preferred a single player engine, I was just too lazy to accomplish it lol.

I also prefer single player games, because i don't actually own a internet, i just go on at internet cafe's ..

I'm creating a 8Bit game with that engine

I just notice that it's possible to create this engine into free movement engine.. which do you prefer ? free movement or tilebase movement? , i'm releasing the source code once i complete everything

[Orbegon]

Free movement sounds good.

Very nice :)

Good luck on this

[hisherwin]

Free Movement Suck, sometimes the player pass through the blocks.. i'll stick with tilebase ..

i finish creating a separate map editor.. i'll just post screenshot soon

Looks good, keep it up.

Another alternative to this would be to include the 'Server' with your client, however make it a background process without a 'UI'. At the main menu when the player clicks 'Single Player' it would execute Shell(App.Path & "\Game_Server.Exe", vbNormalFocus) and simply connect to your loopback to play on your own server.  (Just a tip for anyone curious on porting to their own single player version)
