Pre-template for PopLib ig...

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

8 Upvotes

An overly simplified match 3 bejeweled game Ive been wanting to make but havent gotten to. Just a template, nothing fancy. Its got a long ways to go as you can see..
However, you can tell this is being done in PopLib (opensource version of SexyAppBase).
I had this uploaded to youtube, but would rather keep it to this audience.
This does however mimick bejeweled twist's loading ship thingy, with an arc to represent where it "stops at". Flush onto the arc.
Main loop starts at 03m02s video time.
I also modified mFrameTime to be exactly 120 ticks, so this way it is equal to 120 or 60 hz refresh rates on most monitors in the US, so theres no screen tearing like all the other titles of PopCap had, (at 100 ticks). It is quite a bit faster, but at the cost of speed you get much smoother movements.
Some of these assets were graciously donated to me from Timmy Skwarchov, a fantastic modeler and is also working with a much bigger title and team called "sci jewel". The background that fades in was just a placeholder I found online.
I also couldnt use a proper loading thread because the caching process is WAY too fast on this CPU, assets load in less than 100ms. So I had to use a separate progress bar to simulate the thread sadly. Comments are in the source files to explain partly of what happens in SexyApp's coding philosophy in more detail hopefully..

Can i enable hardware acclereration on newer GPUs?

5 Upvotes

stupid question, but ill ask anyway: whenever i try to enable hardware acc. it doesnt work (as expected), but i'm wondering if there is a workaround to enabling it.

For context, i have an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5060 and right now i'm trying Bejeweled 2 and Peggle Deluxe, tho i'm not sure there is a solution

So I might be confused here but can I explain this to you? Because anybody explain of what these loading screens even are? I mean they look very obscure?

I asked Google Photos AI to ask what Vector from AstroPop will look like as Chibi and this is how it turned out.

This is what nanobanana thinks that bejeweled 4 looks like.

It appears to be combining aspects of Bejeweled stars with the classic casual theme. Like a literal combination of sorts. And yes, there's some noticeable problems with this image. Some of the white gems do not look correct. The "mode" selected widget is also not correct, there is no options menu, there's nothing of that kind. This is also a response to the previous post regarding the bookworm series ai slop. And yes, the purple gems are not actual triangles...

I would not be surprised if there were more posts like this in the future because nobody else seems to be doing anything nowadays with any of the other games.

PopCap Games backup CD for Bejeweled 2

Thumbnail
gallery
13 Upvotes

This is what is referred to as a backup CD. It was how popcap originally marketed their games to the audience of their players during a time where the Internet has just started to become a mainstream library for these games.
How it works: Usually during gameplay you have 60 minutes before you buy the full version of the game or you have a limit to the amount of levels say in bejeweled twist (10). Basically a free trial. With this type of mindset though, instead of having in a limited amount of times that you can renew your codes, you instead had five limits before you could not get your game anymore. Once you ran the CD when CDs were a big thing for games and movies especially at computers that still supported the disc formats, you basically had some prompts telling you where to install the game and it would run itself to a external website to gather the prerequisites of the game and would end up getting the required files for you instead of having to download the game itself and having to do 60 minutes all over again. However once that happens, you had five limits to ensure the full version was indeed kept.

Nowadays in most mobile games once you buy something it's forever on your system even if you renew your purchases on the mobile apps, or if your user information gets lost.

Also, if you uninstalled your game you got a special uninstaller that said some properties such as "leave configuration and user data" so that one day if you decide to get back to it then the user data is already saved automatically granted there's no deletion or system reset on the system.

When going through this CD I found a folder location that I have never seen before. It's denoted in white text on the back side of it.
Unfortunately I could not find the CD as it is long gone and today's world we stick to free software only so this way we can end up discovering better lifetimes of the games that have ruled our empires since childhood.
