Slick Forums

This was a school project that I will probably never finish. I absolutely fell in love with using Slick (it's a very clever mixture between high/low level) and I just want to share what I've done.

The idea was to create a visual exploration game/roguelike using randomly generated worlds. The "planet" was created in C++ using libnoise and exported via XML to a Tiled format.

Worlds look something like this (generated by C++ in BMP format):


The bootstrapper grabs info directly from LWJGL:


The GUI was done with Nifty:


Some ingame shots (no UI here):




If you feel like exploring a bit, here's a direct link to the JNLP:
Click me!

Press 1 and 2 to cycle through body types.
Press 3 and 4 to cycle through faces.
Press 5 and 6 to cycle through hair styles.
Press 7 and 8 to cycle through armor/clothing.

WASD or arrow keys to move around.

I'm working on another (more serious project) also using Slick/LWJGL so you may see more of me around these parts

I can only say: wow!! Big project!! Why trash this? Seems pretty cool, maybe you can share source code so someone can learn from it?

That's really cool.

Did you do the graphics yourself? Looks nice. Also like the music.
