Here is the result with a few bombs sent by the gunner: (click… | — | |

| Community | Steampunk lamp renovation This week-end I found an old rusty lantern in my parents house, ALG "Luciole" type (don't know how old it is). It seemed a great steampunk decoration for the stand, so I wanted to renovate it. Here is the step-by-step transformation 🐙 So here is the lamp. Quite old, rusty, not usable as it. Some parts are missing. First, unmount all pieces, to clean pieces one by one. Here is some alcohol, an… | — | |
| Community | [Devlog #4] Using particles to display a picture in Game Maker -- Greetings, fellow devs, I'd like to share a cool effect I found with Game Maker Studio, which can be adapted for many other projects. To give a little bit of context, in the game, the sonar player has to scan objects, and I wanted to make an image appear progressively on the screen. I found it worked well by using particles! The principle is to pick places randomly in a box around the shape… | — | |

| Community | [Devlog #3] The Gunner Front Weapon For the front weapon of the gunner, we wanted to get a quick and versatile weapon, in opposition to the torpedoes, harder to handle but stronger. In this scope, we designed “the harpoon”, a weapon did not need to be loaded manually, had a limited range, made some damage, and was recovered after each shot. We had difficulties to find a proper balance between making it truly useful and encouragin… | — | |

| Community | [Encyclopedia] America America: He had often wondered if those who took part in such a bold undertaking truly realized that since the beginnings of the History of Mankind in the Sumerian plains, there had been no greater or nobler enterprise. Indeed, what greater endeavour than to liberate men from the chains of the monarchs! Thirteen colonies in a brave New World would become the vanguard of liberty and equality for… | — | |
| Community | [Devlog #1] Moving the Sub (see this blog post in French: ) We wanted the submarine to behave realistically, particularly in the way it moves through the abyss. That’s why we imagined a submarine with five engines: two at the rear to propel forward or backward and three at the front to steer and stabilize it. A good example for this system is the two-seater canoe: if both people paddle on the same side, the canoe turns i… | — | |
