I am mostly working on the level editor<\/strong>. I was not sure when I started this project that I would need a specific level editor. But Spring Up! X360 needs some serious changes in the level design<\/strong> to improve the quality and to adapt to the X360 platform, therefore I need this new level editor. Working on tools with C# is great : it’s really powerful and efficient<\/strong>! Technically speaking, the level editor is just a Game Component (DrawableGameComponent<\/a> XNA class) of the Game. When the “Editor” component is created, all the new mouse and keyboard shortcuts are available.

\nAs you can see in the video, here are some features implemented<\/strong>: create, move, rotate and delete items and targets. You can set up objects as static, dynamic or with a motor<\/strong>. There is also a snap feature. And as the game is running at the same time, you can play directly in the editor.<\/p>\n

You can also see some of the new shapes that will be available in Spring Up! XNA : a triangle <\/strong>and pentagon<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

That’s it for today, I hope you liked it!<\/p>\n
