Current Projects
- MilkShape 3D ASCII Text Model Loader
- This is a MilkShape 3D ASCII Text Model Loader created with AllegroGL (Allegro and OpenGL). Currently it supports textures, and in the future it will also support animation and lighting.
- SpeedHack 2007 - Escape
- My brother, Tino Restivo, and I created this game for the SpeedHack Competition 2007. We had only 72 hours to complete it!
- 3D Adventure Game
- This is my first attempt at making a 3D game using the
Allegro/AllegroGL library with OpenGL. I really like how this game is looking
and I am in the process of adding some actual gameplay. Right now all you can
do is just walk around but I am really happy with how it is coming along.
- Mode7 Racing
- This is my second attempt at making a 2D game using the Allegro
library, and the idea of Mode7 is cool because it takes a 2D image and gives it
perspective to look 3D. A prime example of this is Super Mario Kart for the
SNES, so I am currently using graphics from this
game, however in the future I will make my own graphics once the physics and
driving are better.
