Puzzle Studio

[uyjulian]

I decided to stress test my new engine.



Even through the entire map was covered in boulders, I still managed to maintain a playable framerate (about 30FPS at 100% CPU)!

Before, it was just basically unplayable (at like 1FPS)

I think the optimizations over the last two years I did were worth it. Oh, and I learned a TON of things in the process, too.

Oh, and here's a video:

All right, new repo is here:

https://github.com/uyjulian/NewPuzzleStudio

I decided to start a new repo because the old one was getting too big (40MB!), so git operations took a while.

The source code download links will be moved here: https://sites.google.com/site/awertyb/puzzle-studioto clean up my Github.

Yahoo group messages/files archive and puzzlestudio.org archive will also be there.

is the music in puzzlestudio free to use anywhere else? [like for a CC2 levelpack]

gameMusic1 and backgroundMusic are royalty-free, but fileSelect and gameMusic2 are ripped from video games (Dragon Quest V and Mario's Picross, respectively)

There a number of custom levels people have made for Puzzle studio; (some levelpacks? don't remember exactly)

if this hasn't been done yet; with people's permission I'd like to convert at least some of these to CC2. I remember playing a couple of very fun levels by people who I don't think are around here (Daniel Bowmeister?

Not sure exactly how I'll handle it yet; whether I'll make 1 levelpack or more, or what I'll remake depending on other factors. For example I'm pretty sure some people who made some Puzzle Studio levels are still here and still making levels maybe he wouldn't want me remaking those, but any response/feedback is welcome.

It seems that the yahoo group has been deleted.

I archived the mailing list and the downloads here: https://sites.google.com/site/awertyb/puzzle-studio

I'm probably also going to restructure the game a bit. First order of business is to get rid of the confusing elements. CopyCat will be one of the first to go.

[papperboy3498]

so im trying to recreate CC1 levels in tile world but I need to learn how to use the editor.

[uyjulian]

Why would you want to do that? You can use chips.dat directly with Tile World.
