Dropping by my local Gaming Store looking for the new "Tomb Raider - Legend" that was suppose to be out today (11.Apr.06) in the states, only to find out that I gotta come back tomorrow for it. But anyway, while I was there I picked the March 2006 DVD edition of the "Computer Gaming World"...and when I got home I discovered to my surprise, that it had "Torus Trooper" v0.22 a game written with D v0.110 by Kenta Cho...with complete executables and "D" source on the DVD! My first thought was that this is so Kool, to see "D" on the mainstream disc...that I just had to post my find with ya'all! :)

And about the that other game "TR-L", well, what guy doesn't like a cute chick in "hot pant!" :P (I played the Demo and it was Kool!)

Wow!! really nice and stunning graphics!! and fun game!!

In article <e1hi6r$fv8$1@digitaldaemon.com>, David L. Davis says...

Kenta Cho's sources was very worthwhile to me while learning how to interface D with SDL / openGL. His game framework was/is similar to mine, too.

I think I tried to thank him by email for these once, but never got a reply. So, Kenta, if you read this : thanks !

All his games on the english page : http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~cs8k-cyu/index_e.html

A short article on Cho's games was published in the biggest gaming magazine here in Finland (called "Pelit" - "Games") a couple months back.

Naturally, it didn't mention D, but it was a pleasant surprise to me that the games were not only open source but written in D.

It was also in the German gaming magazine "GameStar" one or two months ago.
Really cool!
