Today I am going to be talking about the very start of the games development. After talking with the other members of the group we have decided that I will be the one who will be creating the maps as this is required within the coding side of the project to be imported. Due to this I have looked around and found a very helpful tool that I will be using to help with the map creation once the first art assets have been given to me by Stephen. Sam has also started work on the music that will be played while playing the game and it is proceeding nicely, Andy has also started on designing what he will be creating as the Marketing section of the games team and like the rest of the group is also proceeding very well. As a whole I feel the group is getting on well and the work is getting done at a good pace.
I myself have started reading up on the Slick2D documentation which can be found at this link. This is the JavaDoc that contains all of the packages and classes that are contained within Slick2D giving detailed write ups on each method and how they can be used within the project that I am creating. This document is going to be invaluable to me as I can quickly lookup any method that I may need and see clearly how this should be implemented into the code I am writing. The Eclipse SDK that I decided upon has been fully setup on my computer with Slick2D and its dependencies linked with the project that I have created. By next week I hope to have a few very simple lines of code written allowing for a window to be rendered ready for the game to be displayed in.
