Alright, about a month ago I successfully completed the game "Battlefield Chess" which was just a small project I dropped the world for to complete for a friend-of-a-friend who was willing to drop $1000 for its completion. Worth it. The game was written in C/C++ alongside SDL.
Just the current state of my project for a friend. You see here all programmer art.
The game is all multi-player at the moment, and as you can see I have chatting and most of the gameplay in. In the near future I intend to improve the art, and implement some sort of AI (If I can make it possible.)
