    He was paid off b/c that looks pretty sad no offense to you or anything but it looks like no time was spent on it. Plus it kinda looks like the Java3D libraries not any kind of C/C++ library.

    Thumbs up Great Job

    Damn man you are good at programming the start is great though the end kinda ruins it. Work on the levels again if you can...I am such a newb at C++ I would have no idea how to make that or even know if it is hard...

    I can make it easily in VB :-D but thats easy in C++ I am pretty sure its much harder

    Good job man keep up the good work

    Unhappy No offense, Just had to say it.

    I initially didn't intend to post anything, but I find myself obliged to.

    There are rules and ethics we should follow, and as far as I've seen they were not followed here.

    If you didn't like the game, you could've expressed that politely pointing out what you didn't like.
    I've not seen the game, but considering that a 12 years old programmer finished something more than a 2 player Tic-Tac-Toe ( i.e. no AI ) is refreshing.

    Congratulations Xterria!

    I just turned 13 two months ago. Most of my games are sitting on my harddrive but one or two are online. These are mostly programs testing out new concepts though.

    thanks coder!
    and valar_king, none of you links work!
    sim1.zip does, but it isn't a valid archive. and microsoft media player says that your avis cannot be decompressed. Oh well, I believe you that you made really good stuff.

    Well, I dont mean to shoot you down or anything... but i'm not really impressed. I know a few 9-10 year old who've created more impressive stuff than that.

    12 years old? You started late.

    U.

    PS. I have to admit that this post is slightly biased against Xterria, because he/she would have to be one of the most annoying people on the board. Not just that, he/she seems to think that they know a lot more than they actually do!
