Hi Ken, Maybe. Basically, the Genesis 3D engine is a dll file, g3d.dll, which can be added to a C++, Visual C#, or Visual Basic project and used to write games. As I mentioned on an earlier post to the list the way it works is that it has a .net style managed interface as in everything is accessible through classes and objects. You want audio, simply use the audio class. You want Sapi support simply use the speech class. You want networking use the Network class. Basically, it is an all in one API that allows a game developer to plug it into any project and get imediate access to audio,speech, networking, input, 3d calculations, etc through one very easy to use library.
So what I'm basically thinking here is that I can create a front end, similar to Audio Game Maker, that allows you to map keys, configure joysticks, add mouse support, and asign them to functions like PlayerStepLeft(), PlayerStepRight(), PlayerStepBack(), PlayerStepFoward(). Plus if I create maybe 15 generic enemy objects you can select them from a list and drop them on a form, set their attributes, and they are done. Same for doors, staircases, ropes, fire pits, or anything else you might like to add to the game. The purpose here would be to do as little programming as necessary, but wrap the engine with a type of automated wizard tool that allows you to build games on the fly.
