  • Alpha Shooter switches from CVS to SVN for new code

    Alpha Shooter is a sci-fi 3D FPS game, previously written in C with OpenGL, that now uses its own modular game engine (Neutron). It's still in early development and will expand (with its reusable engine) to include a scripted storyline, simulated physics and AI and more.

    The SVN repository is now active and will house the new version of Alpha Shooter, completely rewritten in C++, together (temporarily) with the Neutron engine. Users who have been updating source code from the CVS repository should now switch to SVN as the former won't be updated anymore.

  • Alpha Shooter 0.0.3 released

    Alpha Shooter is a simple 3D OpenGL First-Person
    Shooter game with a sci-fi setting, multi-platform
    support (currently Linux, Mac OS X, CygWin and
    Windows), dynamic lighting, particles and
    collision detection systems. While it is
    currently in alpha stage, it will evolve to
    incorporate dynamic shadows, simulated physics,
    network support and much more.

    In this release:

    - Binary packages for all the supported operating
    systems, including a Windows installer, Debian
    Linux package, Mac OS X DMG disk image
    - Improved persistent mouse movement mode now
    shows direction and speed of rotation for added
    user-friendliness
    - Bug fixes, particularly under Windows
