My Pixels: Unsettling Feel
Something seems… unsettled! I tried making a horror scene. It turned out quite well. I did it on Krita, not GIMP. In doing so, I tried various things. This time, I choose 320*240. If you are into pixel art game development, I suggest you use this size for your game. At first, I tried to…
-
My Pixels: Purple Pixels, Dancing Sword Animation
It’s not my first attempt at animating pixel art. Usually, I take only one colour and try to animate the silhouette. Similar to what I did in my game, Develomare but with vector art. This time around, I bothered using multiple colours. And I felt like it worked. The animation felt so good that I…

My Pixels: Four Shades – Strength in Man 0
Count the colours, please. Are they 4? Ops, it’s 5. My mistake! It should be in the monochromatic category. I saw a video on YouTube in which someone was doing pixel art and it is my attempt to try to imitate him. (It is obviously not the same and he did it much better. And…
-
My Pixels: Random Man 1
Bored me, tried to do some pixel art. I did a lazy pixel art. And bothered uploading it on my blog. It is quite a long time since I did a 32×32 pixel art. Here, you can see a scaled version (128 by 128 pixels). Grid Size: 32*32

My Vectors: Purpluria Range 2
Yet another Purpluria Range. Somehow, it feels satisfying to me and looks pretty pleasant. I may try it again but this is it for now. The clouds could have been better. This time I didn’t bother with multiple versions. To me, it is better than the previous version. Please, PLEASE DO COMMENT and tell me which…

My Pixels: Monochromatic – Red Dungeon
Monochromatic… must be boring. It is similar to the Four Shades category but… with more shades. I hope that makes sense. This time it is a Red Dungeon… more like a bloody dungeon. I started off by thinking of a horror/creepy scene and it ended up like that. 2 versions, one with more contrast. This…
-
My Vectors: Purpluria Range 1
A new series: My Vectors. Vector drawing is calculation based drawing where computer kinda does a lot of things behind the screen. I prefer vector editing over raster editing for someone who doesn’t own a graphic tablet like me. Anyhow, I did tell you about Inkscape before. I used it and I liked it. It…

Box Blur with SDL2
Originally, this post is intended to be on cplusplus.com as an article of mine but they never accepted it. So, I thought why not just put it on my own website. If you know what the heck SDL2 and C++ is, you can understand the technique. What is Box Blur? Box Blur is a very…

C++ Programming Series: Dynamic Arrays (Part 2, Last)
Dynamic arrays can be used with functions in exactly the same way as I have told in this post. Just keep in mind that we have to pass the size of the array into the function. Note how I allocated the memory and also, set the value of all the elements in the dynamic array…
-
My Pixels: Four Shades – Beach Aside The City
Someone told me to try less colors. Limiting oneself to something like 4 colors/shades increases the rate of learning. It also motivates a person to try a bigger grid size. If you can guess every element in the image below without considering the title, it is a good pixel art. The image is made with…
-
C++ Programming Series: Dynamic Arrays (Part 1)
Before we get into the dynamic arrays, it is important to understand why we use them and when to use them. Here’s the simplified concept of memory types. The program that we execute stores and works with the data, information and variables (collectively called memory) in the RAM (Random Access Memory). Upon closing the program,…
-
C++ Programming Series: Structures and Data Types
During that non-blogging time, I learned one thing: Always finish what you have started. And so, here I am continuing my C++ Programming Series. C++ got primitive data types like integers, floats and doubles. They are called primitive for a reason. We can create our own data types by combining other data types. We can…

C++ Programming Series: Pointers (Part 4, Last)
Too busy! Too busy! Don’t expect regular and weekly posts from me. In the previous post, we discussed that pointers are actually arrays! This post is to discuss more pointers, arrays and the arithmetic that can be done with them. We can do addition and subtraction with pointers. Multiplication and division are not possible! Here…
-
C++ Programming Series: Pointers (Part 3)
Pointers and Arrays are the same things! This statement might confuse you. How is this possible that pointers and arrays are the same? They never look to be same! This post will clear this point to you. Let’s get started with the code below. What will it print? Will it print the first member of…
-
C++ Programming Series: Pointers (Part 2)
In the previous post, we learned how to get the memory address of a variable and how to define a variable that holds the memory address i.e pointer. Suppose that there is a variable of the type int called number. We initialize it with value equals to 10. Now, suppose that it has a memory…
-
My Pixels: Random Imagination 1
This time, just an imagination of mine. Nothing fancy. It is just an abstraction from some point and reality from the other! But it is what one think about it. It feels like someone is going to start a journey along with some evil waiting for the opportunity to hurt you. Grid Size: 128*128
-
C++ Programming Series: Pointers (Part 1)
In this post, we are going to discuss pointers. But before proceeding, I just want to say that if you really followed all my posts till now then, Congratulations! You learned the basics of programming in general! But there are still a lot of basics in C++! C++ is a very old programming language but…
-
C++ Programming Series: File I/O
In this post, we are going to discuss input and output. No, I am not talking about cout, cin or any other methods we have discussed till now. I am talking about writing and reading files. For working with files, we need to include another header called fstream. There are three classes in it, for file…

Developing a Game: SamuraiDuel
Nowadays, I am developing a game called SamuraiDuel. It is going to be a 2D game and is built on OpenGL, SDL2, Box2D, and CEGUI all in the language, C++. Before starting to develop the game, I first developed the base of a very low-level Game Engine which I should call a GL Engine, GL SDK or…

C++ Programming Series: References
I believe that my series is getting complex with every post being published! This has to be done because we should also be getting more complex and more logical with every topic we discuss. Today’s topic is References. Before proceeding on, let us discuss a few problems with functions. The first one is that we…

C++ Programming Series: Headers and Prototypes (Part 2, Last)
In this post, we are going to discuss some confusions that you might have got in the previous post. You might have read #include “func.h” in that post and not #include <func.h>. Actually, both have different meanings! If we type angle brackets (<>) instead of double quotes (“”) for func.h, the compiler will check for…
-
My Pixels: Temples in the Dark
This really took time to draw! The trick is to use as many layers as possible and then, finally, putting all of them together to form a nice scene! I use GIMP and I recommend that to you as well. Grid Size: 128*128
-
My Pixels: Lonely Jug
Hmmm… Guess what? Another Pixel Art! This time, the grid size is 128 by 128, not 64 by 64! It gets 4 times longer and lengthier (and so, harder as well) to get good pixels on the go! I found myself, not very good with bigger and tiny grid sizes! This time, not so special!…
-
My Pixels: Sunset and the Landscape
I am loving pixel art! This time, I crowded entities too much into a very small grid size which is not looking cool at all. But still, I am just a beginner and that’s just my third try! I really like the GIMP! It’s awesome! Grid Size: 64*64
-
My Pixels: Sunset with Water Scene
I made another pixel art! This one is better than the previous one. All my pixel art showcases will be under the series named, My Pixels. Pixel Art is not something that is related to programming but a game developer requires resources for his/her game and of course, one of those resources are Sprites/Images for…
-
C++ Programming Series: Headers and Prototypes (Part 1)
Until now, we have been working with codes which are present in just a single file. We have been doing single file projects till now, in which all the codes are being typed in one file. This approach is good for tiny projects. However, when we are going to have some medium-sized project to be…
-
C++ Programming Series: Functions/Subroutines (Part 4, Last)
In the previous post, I confused you into the depth of the functions and my abstractions although, I hope that you got the concept fairly. The hint that I gave you in the previous post is about the order of the functions. If you modified checkRegistrationEligibility() function by adding enterAString() and enterAnInt(), you may have got…

Learning OpenGL
The start of this month proved to be very busy for me and my new challenges! These days, I am learning OpenGL (or you may call it, Open Graphics Library) which is something next level in terms of graphics! It is pretty hard and requires solid concepts of using vectors, geometry, matrices and just mathematics!…
-
C++ Programming Series: Functions/Subroutines (Part 3)
In the previous post, we have played with a function called checkRegistrationEligibility(). It was first, a function of return-type, void and now, bool. What is good with this, is the fact that this function is able to connect. By being connected, we mean that the data available in a limited scope of a function can…
-
C++ Programming Series: Functions/Subroutines (Part 2)
In the previous post, we have made the code in the main subroutine or int main() very short using another subroutine. Yes, int main() at the start is also a function that we are dealing with. But now, we will be dealing with multiple functions rather than one. We did all codes in just one…
-
C++ Programming Series: Functions/Subroutines (Part 1)
In this post, we are going to discuss something called “Functions”. They are also called “Subroutines”. Like arrays, functions or subroutines are very significant, awesome and helpful. These are some of the basic things which we will keep using throughout our entire programming sessions. The first thing to figure out is the definition of a…
-
C++ Programming Series: Multidimensional Arrays
In the last two previous posts, we discussed a very useful thing called ‘Arrays’. This topic is not yet completed and this post is going to end it! Multidimensional arrays! Previously, we discussed 1D (or single-dimensional) arrays. They are pretty simple. But now, time for 2D and 3D arrays. We won’t go into details with…
-
C++ Programming Series: Char, Char Arrays and Strings
As we know that char is one of the primitive types whereas string is not a primitive type. Let us reveal some more facts about the two. char is basically, a number like int. But that for each particular number, a specific letter or symbol is selected in accordance with the ASCII table. You can…
-
C++ Programming Series: Special Characters
In the previous post, we talked about some really important but useless kind of things. I mean that why you really need to understand precedence and sizeof()! Well, this post is also not interesting but I believe that it is worth knowing! For example, can you please tell me how to show a double quote…
-
C++ Programming Series: Precedence, Order and sizeof()
In the previous post, we learned complex but still, simple looking conditions. Instead of using boolean variables for complex conditions, we can directly use them in the conditional statements. Below is an example of a ‘complex looking’ complex condition: Now, guess the output without executing it (or running it). It looks hard or complex to…
-
C++ Programming Series: Complex Conditions
In the previous post, the topic of ‘Using Conditional Statements’ finally, came to an end. But only now, there is something we call ‘complex’. Actually, the word, ‘complex’ means multiple. In fact, the complex is always something, multiple. A single complex object is a combination of multiple simple objects. A simple example of a complex…
-
C++ Programming Series: Using Conditional Statements (Part 7, Last)
In this post, we are going to learn the keyword, break. Are we not familiar with this keyword before? Yes, you got it right. We already learned it when we learned the switch-statement where we use break keyword after every case’s code. The break keyword is only used for stopping loops and ending a switch…
-
C++ Programming Series: Using Conditional Statements (Part 6)
In the previous posts, we learned very beautiful things of which the most beautiful is game development. We have covered if-statement, if-else statement, if-else-if-statement, switch-statement, while-statement and do-while statement but there is another very important and most frequently used conditional statement called the for-statement. It is a bit more complex but neat and short. Following…
-
C++ Programming Series: Using Conditional Statements (Part 5)
Argghhh! When will the topic of conditional statement get over? Well, we have to be patient while learning something. I hope that you might have done the home task of the previous post. Just keep trying to code things up and try to implement small ideas with your skill, you will see yourself learning and…
-
C++ Programming Series: Using Conditional Statements (Part 4)
In the last few previous posts, we learned some of the conditional statements, user input and basic arithmetic. Now, time to use some bits of all of them in one place! Just like if-statements, there is another conditional statement called as while-statement. Below is a very simple example of this: When you run this code,…
-
Duration of Learning Programming
This question is quite impossible to answer with guarantee. There are huge individual variations in how long it takes to pick up programming. Some people learned to program in just a month, some in half a year and others in more than 2 years! Of course, if your only task in life from this moment is to…
-
C++ Programming Series: Basic Arithmetic
We discussed many things till now. We discussed printing the variables, primitive types, user input and some conditional statements. What we should discuss right now is the basic arithmetic. It is very simple to do primitive calculations with primitive types. We will only work with integers here. But it will be applicable to all other…
-
Learning Touch Typing
I am pretty busy learning things like Touch Typing. Touch Typing is the ability to type without seeing the keyboard. With this skill, you can reach the speed of more than 100 words per minute! Typing will never be arduous for you if you are a touch typist. But it needs dedicated practice in a…
-
C++ Programming Series: User Input and Comments
In the previous post, we talked about user input. Well, there’s no post about user input until now. A very simple user input program is given below: This program will get the input from us and then, outputs our input. There are many new things to notice: This time, we also included string in our…
-
C++ Programming Series: Using Conditional Statements (Part 3)
In the last two previous posts, you got through the if, else and else-if-statements. The uncertain point is the difference between two if-statements and if-statement with an else-if-statement. Two if-statements are not connected to each other. They don’t have any relation with each other. The compiler has to pass through all of these statements even…
-
C++ Programming Series: Using Conditional Statements (Part 2)
In the previous post, we learned some conditional statements. Now, we are going to learn more about them. And later on, we will learn even more… But for now, just check an example of double if-statements again: Everything looks fine in the above code and also compiles fine. It runs fine as well. But the…
-
C++ Programming Series: Using Conditional Statements (Part 1)
Conditional statements in a program are such statements which control the progression of our program. We must understand the fact that our code is always executed from the start to the end linearly. Following is a conditional statement: Here, if shows the condition that is typed after it in round brackets. In the curly brackets…
-
C++ Programming Series: Primitive Types
In the previous post, we discussed variables and a primitive type called int. Primitive types are the basic types from which other complex things are derived. Like int, the following are some other primitive types. They have different sizes and they are calculated in bytes which is a term defined for measuring memory in computers.…

C++ Programming Series
From this day onward, I am going to do C++ Programming Series. It will be short and useful. It will be more revising in nature than learning and so, it will be useful for those who are beginners as well as those who are not beginners to C++ programming. Requirements: Some experience of using computer…
