After 11 months, Happenlance is finally out!! 😄 It's an action physics "joust-em-up" built in a C++ engine using SoLoud, STB_image, msf_gif, and other Handmade libraries. Thanks so much to the Handmade community for helping bring this to life! Feel free to wishlist if you're interested! 🙏 https://steampowered.com/app/1663410?_9

Hey there Happenlancers, if any of you Windows devs are wondering how to use PrintScreen to get nice screenshots like this while playing your game in exclusive-fullscreen, I wrote a quick blog post for the hoops I had to jump through in order to facilitate it 😄 https://lance.handmade.network/blogs/p/7891-how_to_make_printscreen_work_in_exclusive_fullscreen
Friends!! Our game Sir Happenlance is currently hosting a Live Playtest Event over on the discord - feel free to hop in-game and play a PvP round against me or anyone else!

Sorry for going quiet - I've been hard at work on Happenlance! Here's what 3 more months of art direction got me!
Happenlance is on the road to feature completion! We're too busy to make a devlog video, but the Handmade crowd gets a sneak inside peek 😎
Our fourth devlog for our game Happenlance is out (finally 😳 ) and it's a thicc boi:
- Invalidating asset references
- Sorting oriented bounding boxes
- Notes on game AI design
- Physical derivation of the aerodynamical model of a fletched arrow in flight
- Implementing undo systems in level editors
- GIF encoding and framebuffer resizing If any of that sounds interesting then check it out 😏 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2oKkc9helPE
Our third devlog is released! Miles discusses the challenges of data organization and alludes to data-orientation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsO6IT3XyjQ

Recursive descent C++ declaration parsing. No symbol tables or lookahead 😃 5.0 mloc/s release mode (I will improve that by a lot!!)
VERY simple rules can get types and variables 80% correct... (excuse the fruit salad - just to visualize which is which). However, this will be improved on.
