Bombing Start

Me and my friend Jazz have been give a task on monday to create a game to take with us to microsoft. Its going to be a bomberman style game. Im sorry that I can’t post any screenshots of our progress, My graphics card does not support XNA. The only thing which I can do in XNA is write code and see if it has any errors; I can not debug. Anyway, we’re hoping to finish the game by next monday. We dont have much time to create advanced features; however if we have any spare time, we will add as much as possible. We got the game working with the XBOX controller yesterday which was really good :D

    Great blog post Henrik!

    You guys are doing an amazing job so far with XNA and C#

    I’m sure Microsoft will be impressed if you get the first level kinda working…but you have done a brilliant job so far!

    Will keep you updated about the event and by the way…you guys are getting goodie bags with all kinds of stuff in on the day compliments of Andy Sithers, Microsoft UK.
