MarbleTower

MarbleTower is a 3D screensaver of a childs toy.

Status: completed
Screenshots

Thanks to Nick Perrce from Gecko Toys who graciously allowed me to use his design. I've always wanted to do a screensaver, but I've never had the time or inspiration to do one ... then one day as I watched my kids playing with their 'MarbleTower' I thought "wow that would look cool as a screensaver". Although I have finished working on this screensaver (for now), there are heaps of areas this screensaver could be improved. For example, currently only a fixed number of marbles (all with the same colour) appear and roll down the tower, it would be a simple task to add more types. Also the camera views are configured to a fixed set, this could be made user configurable (ie. run in follow mode, random mode, etc.).

Please feel free to download and have fun !

Currently this game is in its early stage of prototype development. So don't waste your time downloading this application if you're after a game you can play. It is NOT completed ! This is a prototype, it is my 'ideas' area, it will have bugs ! Nothing blows up yet (but there are explosions) ... there is no sound yet ... the heads-up display is just text info at the moment ... there is heaps on my TODO list !!!

SkyDome

Status: completed
Screenshots

The SkyDome was originally written by Curtis Olson and is used in FlightGear. It has sun, moon, clouds, stars and planets. It has sun rise and set effects. It is a fantastic work of art ! I have now moved this code into the PLIB ssgAux library (thanks Curt!), so other PLIB users can have easier access to it.

Please feel free to download a demo !
