Curling Game

[Rambus]

The showcase section of the forums is my favorite part, so I thought I should post some screen shots of one of my WIP ogre projects.

This is an unnamed curling simulator. I started this second game project to help solidify my game engine.


Showing off the pebbled ice shader.


Overhead lights glow.


Curling stones with AO enabled.


Sweeping a delivered stone.


Quick match, team selection. Allows for hot seat.


Shooting UI ( no compositors enabled ).


Tech details:
- Ogre based rendering
- OgreMax art pipeline
- Raknet based networking (Lan and Internet)
- Full post processesor framework (AO, DOF, Glow, Pixel Motion Blur, Vignetting)
- Modable, Data driven game logic
- Unlock rink upgrades, new equipment, famous teams and play modes
- Plugin physics system, can hot swap between Newton, Bullet and Havok

Artwork for the rink is not final, I hope to release the game soon

Looks promising! Certainly the best curling game I've ever seen

No kidding. I think it's the only curling game that I've ever seen. Great work!

Nice work Rambus. Looks solid.

Haha, I like how the responses so far are from a guy from Canada, a guy from Minnesota, and a guy from Russia. Everyone else is like, "WTF is curling?"

Looking good already. Hot switching the physics implementation sounds like a great feature .

BTW: What GUI library was used? I really like the left power/force (?) widget in the last screenshot!!!

@Jabberwocky - We just need a Scottish guy and we are done

@Spacegaier - The gui is built on top of MyGui.
In the power/curl UI the stone is actually live rendered, so as it rotates the reflection changes.
Edit: The yellow line is just a quad with an animated stipple shader on it.
