First pass at vector art

Last post I was talking about contracting out the art and today the need to make some artwork and put it in hit me. So rather than drawing lines my code is now drawing images. Now that I have some artwork in I want to put in some more polishes and game like functionality on my asteroids clone before moving onto another game type which is a good thing since I usually leave stuff unfinished.

With images rendering I now have some interesting choices to make. What is next?

• Clean up code to post?
• Look through legal contracts to see what I can post?
• Add in particles/explosions
• Add in scoring?
• Convert data driven format to be run by lua rather than XML?

I’ll let you know what I decide. Today I’m leaning more towards fun with making a game. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.
