Project update
Hello

So, classes started again, and my duties as a student returned. Luckily, my schedule is pretty neat (monday and friday full, wednesday normal, thursday labs here and there, and tuesday empty), so I can pretty much arrange everything to perform at my maximum capacity. Classes I'm attending to a…

Post-semester speedrun
Phew, it's been a while.

Semester finally over, all classes have been passed, now I have free time until summer semester starts full force. Not that I've had to do much anyway as classes were easier...

Anyway. This will be like a personal diary, so my rambling might be incoherent.

Speedrun

Yesterday, a…

Fighting the code backfire
Hello

While it's on my mind, I wanted to write here few lessons I learned in last few days.
  • If the language supports polymorphism, USE IT.
  • Design before coding.
  • Having properly structured code helps. A LOT.
  • Keep the objects closely related on one heap.

    Those points don't seem to be related, right? Allow …

    Salty update.
    Hello.

    Greeting from the sunny (and disgustingly windy) beach in Croatia. It's good to get away from the regular style of life; for some reasons my productivity arises while on vacation. Only problem is the lack of the normal connection to the internet, but I've managed to snatch dad's mobile intern…

    Back to the (my) past.
    I've been working a little on my old laptop. After digging through My Documents in search for some old documents, I've noticed VS2010 folder in it. With my curiosity suddenly awakened, I suddenly found myself staring at the content of the Projects folder.

    Reason: some of my old projects were there. …

    Battle City - Battlefield is opened
    Hello

    I took a break from exams in order to work on the game. For now, I managed to pass Databases exam and Intro to Computer Science exam so I'm a little tired from studying.

    This time, there are no any big updates on the progress, except for graphical revamp (which …

    Learning to draw, pixel by pixel
    Hello

    Some time has passed from last update. Semester end is coming close and with it summer vacation, valuable time for learning anything programming-related and... Exams. Lots of exams. Oh how I don't want to study from faculty materials, I'd rather invest time on working on projects or study from…

    Temporal silence
    Hello

    Well, I've been out for a while. There is a lot going on, my faculty exams are finished. Since I'm busy with faculty I simply don't have enough time to work on what I want - and even when I have I don't have enough motivation to do it.
    Regarding faculty, this semester I have to write seminary -…

    New Battle City update
    Hello again!

    Here's another project status update; unlike last time, this time I made more "visible" stuff rather than tuning the code that operates it. Well... when I think about it... there is plenty of both. This update is rather big (for me) and I cannot express how determined and happy I am bec…

    Battle City - The Battlefield is forming
    Winter vacation is over
    First things first: I know that it's late, but Happy New Year! Hope you had a good vacation.
    I didn't have much time to invest into project due to all the events surrounding Christmas and New Year so there was another 2 week "rest" from programming. In the evenings I'd rather…
