Update and Particles

Finally, the update that you've all been waiting for... isn't here.

Marcel was sick, Peter was... attending a gay orgy. It was me and the camera. Oh, then guess what. It didn't run very well on the machine that we wanted to capture from (Vista), so the movie got even further delayed.

Finally, I just decided that it was pointless to wait any longer for this movie (since we'll hopefully be doing Chapter 7 very soon). I fixed up lots of things on the particles (aside from allocation), and decided to show them instead.

I've also decided that I'd like to do a movie based on how things work due to the large amount of interest I've seen. If you'd like to see some aspect of the game explained, please leave a comment.

Edit: I just realized that I have an almost identical SDL version of this that I ported awhile back on my hard drive. I've uploaded it for you enjoyment. You can screw around with it: http://thechaosrift.com/dev/particle.zip

The particles in the SDL version are simple SDL_Rects. Please view the Readme for controls. It should work on any Windows machine (not Vista tested). ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwOj8EzYG3E
