I make game for you!!

[GreggBz]

Fellow Amigans,
I am working on a Windows game called Outerspace. (It's like Starcontrol or Starflight)

There is a new technology build. I need some people to test it out and report back to me.

Here

I will give you a cookie!

Thanks!

Correct! VB.NET and it's getting ginourmous.
It's funny cause I'm a Unix admin and I of course, own three Amigas. I feel dirty.

Honestly though, .NET is pretty awsome stuff. And DirectX has a good API and lots of features. If starting over, I would do it still in .NET but perhaps C#

Anyway, I do know a bit of BlitzBasic. I might port the fractal planet generator (a simpler version) to the Amiga.

Yes, VB and C# compile to the same CLR (Common Language Runtime) so the binaries would be almost identicle.

VB and C# code is very similar structurally. So, basically it's just syntax. VB .NET is a little more wordy.

This is interesting:

There may be some problems with the DirectX stuff, I don't know if that translates dirrectly.
