Super Duper absolutely Wild, WOW!!

Just so mesmerizing to watch and see the power in the code!!!!
Thanks very inspirational work!!!

The particles matching the color of the cubes, very very nice touch!!!

[ErosOlmi]

Few little changes:
cubes will now be fired in all directions x, y, z positive and negative
fired cubes will change color to random red variation

Attention: this script needs latest thinBasic preview version 1.2.0.1

Looks so much like escape pods leaving a doomed space cruiser, so neat to watch. The code is so clean too, when you look at c++ game code for 3d and then come look at thinBasic code, what a difference, like night and day!!

[ErosOlmi]

No other ideas?
OK, I got one: adding some initial mouse usage plus sound effects for cubes hits.

I finally saw the whole game field cleared of cubes. Amazing how fast and smooth everything is, handling the input, motions, collisions, effects and sound. My hats off to what you guys have accomplished with thinBasic, tbgl and all the other modules!!

Script can be downloaded. It is attached inside the post.

Yes, I should have set a warning: cat playing with my mouse, mind your eyes!
;D

Hi Eros,

... and I must see it as last one, damned school timetable

This is perfect!
Manual camera control is very nice and the sounds add the right arcade mood


Thanks a lot!,
