Michael's Java Tutorial ep1: Intro to Java

This is the first episode of my Java Tutorial. Here we go through the basics:

o What is Java o How do we get Java installed and ready to use o Write our first Java program

Talented Ball project that I did to sharpen up my fundamental skills with Maya. Used Maya 2016 Extension 2, this old tutorial based on 3D Buzz Mastering Maya Fundamentals

Some new features used in here :

Used Maya Nucleus for softbody instead of the old one

Used 3Delight path tracer instead of Maya Software

FIRST EVER SOLELY PHOTOSHOP ART AHH!

I'm super excited about how this turned out. If you guys wanna check out the tutorial to create the shiny mountains, click here :)

3D Buzz is a company dedicated to providing the world with quality technical education over 3D animation, programming, game design, and much more. We have been producing training videos since 2001, always pushing the envelope in the development of informative lessons with an engaging and personable format.

Phew! I have finally managed to come up more coherent order of what to learn, when and after what. Using tools as UnrealDevelopmentKit, JavaDevelopmentkit ( <-- not completely neccessary if you use Eclipse instead ) and Eclipse IDE Java developer kit, i can practise what is neccessary to gain needed knowledge in "Game Developing". Remember, all sorts of games ( Android, 2D, side scroller, etc ) are possible with UDK. First of all is to download the UnrealDevelopmentKit, get the feel of the program and use bucket loads of free amazing tutorial videos of Youtube. This will help you get started with basics of UDK. Secondly get to know the basics of computer language. Java is excellent since according to Epic Games ( Guys who made UDK ) it sweeps very close to UnrealScripting. Helps you create custom content, create those unique gaming styles ( as mentioned above ) and much more!

Here's a very good tutorial video to give much insight on Java in short amount of time!

Hopefully you have had chance to go check out the tutorials over at 3DBuzz (http://www.3dbuzz.com/training/view/c-101-spring-2013), that is of course if you want to learn too.

It took me around a week and a half to get through the tutorials on 3DBuzz, I did a bit of practice before jumping in and starting to write my own code.

I am an old hat at gaming, I'm 31 and have been playing games as long as I remember. There are a number of games I hold in the highest of regards and have been with me for most of my life, one of these is The Bards Tale (great fan site - http://www.bardstaleonline.com/). I spent many hours playing the original on my C64 and still find mentions of old characters popping up when I talk to my brothers .

There have been games recently that have teased at bringing this amazing first person dungeon crawling experience back to gaming, namely the incredible Legends of Grimrock (http://www.grimrock.net/) but unfortunately the mobile / tablet version never surfaced. Which is a real shame, I work on mobile everyday and there is so much potential for a game like this to be mobile, engrossing and surprisingly social; If anyone ever played the game Bloodwych, they will fondly remember the split screen 2 player mode which, I don't think, I have ever seen since?

This is what I want to create, a mobile first person dungeon crawler, with the elements I loved from games like Bloodwych and Bards Tale, but also including the things I love from mobile gaming!
