Hello, just a little update on the tutorial. Well basically I’ve been really busy with school, and this next month will be absolutely insane as several group projects are going to be due by the end of the month. This means I have no idea when I am going to get to write up the tutorial about tile engines, but it will be coming.

When I have had a chance to do some coding outside of things for school, I’ve realized my tile engine is kind of turning into a part of a game engine which I am going to write. Note: the tutorial I am writing is going to go over concepts, and have small code samples to give you the idea behind how it works, and why tiles are great for creating levels in 2D games.

Also I am looking into creating a level editor for my engine which I may post up under projects, but that may not be done until later in the spring when I have time to sit down and do a lot of coding.

In other news still no SC2(Starcraft 2) beta key for me :(. This is probably a good thing because that game would probably take over my life haha. Also for any people who enjoy eSports, theres a chance that MLG may add SC2 to their league, which is HUGE. As of tonight they are uploading their first show match between Artosis and EG.Louder onto their youtube channel so check it out!
