Stackless and Twisted Python Example
July 13, 2007 - Head Gnome A new Python resources section has been added to the Products Page here at Gnometech. And to open up this new page a Stackless/Python/Pygame example has been added. From its description:
This application runs Stackless as a separate Twisted thread to demonstrate their coexistence and communication. The Stackless code creates a number of AI space ships that fly around a 2D zone chasing after a target as viewed within a Pygame window. The Twisted code provides a web back end to the simulation.
So head on over to the new Python Resources page and take a look. Enjoy! |

Torque X Launches
July 13, 2007 - Head Gnome Torque X is a new game engine created by GarageGames designed to harness the power of Microsoft's XNA. It is written entirely in C# and includes many of the features found in other Torque engines.
Because it is built on XNA, you can code once and then run your game on either Windows or your Xbox 360. It is very cool to see your game running on your TV.
David Wyand, the owner of Gnometech, programmed the sample game Torque Combat that is included in every copy of Torque X. Find out more about Torque Combat over at The Great Games Experiment:
Torque X comes in two versions. There is the free version that includes just the binary of Torque X but allows for full scripting capabilities. Torque X Pro is for more advanced users who want the source code to the engine and an indie or commercial license may be purchased from GarageGames.
Head on over to the Torque X Product Page at GarageGames to download your copy today.
