Good news, I'll get back to the project.

Just join the contest and have fun. We might change the rules in the upcoming months, but not now.

Hi, I made ​​the classic snake game.

Download binaries&sources

Cool stuff, can we include it in the next Delta Engine release?

Category: Code
Link: http://sdrv.ms/11LWb0B

Description:
This is a particle system, it's still in very early beta state. Initializers and modifiers based on: http://flintsilverlight.codeplex.com/
I didn't open the source yet, because refactoring required and a new more efficient emitter. There are lot of garbage now, and a little sluggish over than 4000 particles, what isn't very well. (I don't know why, uses low memory)

Instructions:
click-click-click

Things planned:

1. Effects can be declared in xml file, loaded via Content<T>
2. Triggers
3. Effect editor plugin

Hola,

Here's my entry for the Monthly Contest April 2013 in Code category. It's a Delta Engine version of my Particle Engine, runs pretty nicely now no DE even could be still faster but I suppose it will do:




Here are binaries (Windows version): http://www.codesmith.fi/...p?attredirects=0&d=1

If the above does not work, here's a link to the downloads page on my site, Downloads

git://github.com/codesmith-fi/particletester.git
and throug browser:
GitHub - DE ParticleSystem tester

Details of the Particle Engine

• Particle System can consist of one or more effects
  
• Each Particle Effect can contain one or more emitters.
  
• Currently supports several types of emitters, Cone, Line, Circle, Point
  
• Easily extendable. Make your own Generators, Emitters and Modifiers
  
• Generators are abstracted, each generator is applied during particle creation time
  
• Generators include, Random and Constant versions of: Opacity, Color, Scale, Rotation, Depth, etc.
  
• Modifiers are abstracted, each modifier is applied during particle life time in the update loop
  
• Generators include, Scale, Opacity, Rotation, Velocity (linear,angular) etc...
  
• Now with ParticlePool which keeps a pool of preallocated particles...
  

I've released this as open source under MIT so this can be used if you want. Of course I'd like credit if someone uses it :)

Edit: I updated the screenshots so this should be final now also added description of the system.

Hallo,

my little game: Delta Ninja. It is only a prototype and I hope to improve it in the coming weeks. I will publish the source on codeplex.

Alternative link: Delta Ninja.

You have to cut the logo from side to side. A stroke starts with a single mouse click and goes on for 1/10 of second following the mouse movement. The biggest logos are worth 10 points; the smaller ones are worth 15 points.
Press ‘f’ to switch to full screen or restore windowed mode.
Press ‘ESC’ to quickly close the game.

Some screenshots:
