Dark BASIC
does anyone here have any experiance with Dark BASIC?
what i want to do is make a sort of mario-esque 2D educational sidescroller for Pre-School children (it's for my A-Level Computing Project). What i was thinking was instead of having to jump on the enemies to kill them, the children had to solve (very) simple maths problems (2+3 = ? etc). however, i have got no idea what so ever of where to start. I'm using DBC so any help would be much appreciated

Re: Dark BASIC
That sounds far in excess of what you need to do for an a level project tbh.

If your exam board is the same mine was (OCR) I think they don't care about stuff like that, but they want you to be able to demonstrate simple DB theory, with normalisation and crap, although a game would be more fun to do, i doubt it would lend itself well to that. Also, if you have no idea where to start then you're just making life more difficult for yourself, you can get an A putting to use everything you've been taught already.

Re: Dark BASIC
No experience with Dark Basic, but many answers regarding games can be found here. I did see a number of dark basic threads on that forum in the past.

I COULD help you with C++/OpenGL though.

speaking of which, I already have a solid understanding of C & C++, OpenGL has always escaped me though, I might borrow on your talents some time
