0.3.0a

Fixed an initializing bug when using a drawable image.
0.3.0 - This is a release in preparation for Galaxy Stations. Enjoy!

Added a reference pixel system. It allows to rotate and scale a sprite around a specific point on itself. Check the documentation how to use it. The spritetest example also has a little example on it.
Fixed a huge memory leak when loading an image which was in every previous version. Upgrading is recommended.
Several speedups which can increase the speed of the library when drawing Sprites and TiledLayers, or even assigning Images.
0.2.3

All possible png files can now be loaded.
Image has now a "DestroyImage()" method to allow to reload the image after that.

This Basic Platformer Engine is an engine created by Doogie/Doogie_Forever
/Doogie1012/Doogin.

This was my first leap into C/C++ and there may be code which isn't optimized, code that
can be achieved much easier or more effeciently, etc.

If you find you can make any improvements in effeciency to the engine then please let me
know and I will get right on it as I want to learn how to make my games more effecient as
well.

Q. Why release such an early engine?
A. Because I haven't seen any platformer engines on the WiiBrew.org website.

Q. This is crap, you can't do anything, whats the point in this?
A. Well its useful for coders who are learning C/C++ for the Wii, like myself.

Q. Should I be learning how to code like you?
A. No, I am a noob and I am most likely not coding very effeciently.

Q. I don't code, can I still see what it's like?
A. Yes, I have included the latest build in with the source-code.

Q. What are the variables image_index, image_speed, image_number for?
A. These are future variables which will allow me to set the sprites to animations (tiles).

DragonMedia Player will pick up files anywhere on your SD card, and plays sequentially once a file has started. Simply install into the HBC by copying the dmp folder in the zip file to /apps/ and run the program. Do not rename the folder as DragonMedia Player expects things to be in the correct order to function.

Supported Formats
Currently, this list is limited, as I have tried to set up the application framework before porting codecs. I am working on getting common formats such as flac and ogg integrated, and I am interested in supporting as many strange formats such as spc, sid, nsf, etc, so look forward to more support.

Supported File Sources
Again, this list is very limited, nothing from DVD, USB, or Internet supported yet.

Future Plans
Things I would like to add when I get the time.

Random play

It does you guys no good to have no warning, so I'll tell you.

GameFAQs is about to update its TOS. The new document will be roughly the same as GameSpot's current TOS. The largest and most noticeable change is the inclusion of homebrew under the Illegal Activities rule. That's why all the stickies have gone - even CJayC's, because it is no longer correct.

When the new TOS hits the site, all of the topics on this board (and the DS and Wii boards, as they each have a good homebrew community) that talk about homebrew will be deleted or closed. If they're deleted, you'll probably get an NKL, and contesting it will do no good.

If you want to complain about this change, here is not the place to do it (as it's considered Off-Topic). In fact, complaining about it at all isn't going to help, as this ruling is never going to be rescinded.

If you need information concerning homebrew, there are plenty of other sites out there that can help you. Because linking to those sites will be a violation of the new TOS, I can't link to them for you, but Google is always your friend

I remeber when was the first time I played Sokoban. It was on my Gameboy. I was only 12 and it was summer. That summer I bought one of those 16-in-1 cartdridges. There were a lot of awesome games there but there was one that I remember specially. I didn't even knew his name until some years later. It was an awesome game that made me spent a lot of time thinking and having fun. There was a guy with a hat and some boxes that you had to push to some cells that were marked with points. I didn't need some instructions or something like that to play it, the game was in Japanesse. And I think that is one of the wonderful things of this game. It was intuitive, fun and gave you that felling of satisfaction when you finished a level you have been trying for days. It was Sokoban.

A lot of ports of this game have been released since then, for all platforms, including the DS. But anyway I wanted to make my own version I have spent a lof of time on it. Not because it is very hard to develop (I coded the logic of the game in just an afternoom and in 3 weeks I had my first playable demo) but because at the time of developing this game I have also been improving ZEngine. The version that I've made is on 3D and I thinks is the first one like that released on the DS. You can also load set of levels from your card and I think this is also new too. And the main character of the game is Roko, one of the character that I draw for my weekly comic strip tinomi. I had the model done years ago, it was going to be on 1010 Locos por el tenis, and finally I have been able to place it on a game

Ok, that's all from me, at the moment. Here I leave you the versions for Windows and Nintendo DS. There is no version for Symbian. You now what? I hate Symbian, it is horribleeeeeeee. Yes that's the truth, you don't program for Symbian, you fight! XDDDD And I am tired. I don't know if I'll continue supporting Symbian versions or not. Who knows. Hope you enjoy the game. For any suggestion of bug report, you know where to find me :P
