Dawn of the Geeks

The Bunnies site has been updated. One of the features of the game that the site didn’t support was bump mapped and depth mapped walls. There is now a tool available that will allow you to use any tile piece as a bump and/or depth map for any other tile piece.

The client has supported this feature for awhile. I had previously just manually set up a couple test tiles directly in the database.

It would probably be a good idea to put together some sort of manual for this product now. The Bunnies web-site is now fully capable of editing maps for the Bunnies game. The rest of the game development process is going to revolve around making Bunnies fully internet enabled. Currently the server serves only to access map information and download resources. What I’m looking to do next is to allow multiple players to interact when they’re in the same map. The first part of that is implementing a chat interface.
