How easy will it be to incorporate the models into your source code? (what language are you using?) does blender come with libraries for reading/parsing/rendering/whatever your model files from within your own program or will you have to write that from scratch?

Well blender was created with python.. and My game is being coded in python so ya!, but.. All I need is just 3 images.. so that I can get my game going.. going to spend a little more time with blender.. before I can continue on the game though.. I know I will need to learn this, else If I was to create another game.. then I might find my self hitting the brick wall once again

I use ZModeler, has made one car model and rally track for GTA VC (both) and some other little stuff. I also have 3ds MAX that is the best 3d modelling program available (but hard to use). Yours is pretty good!

MS Paint. That's what I made the graphics for my first game in. They rocked! lol.

I think I still have an animated gif I made by drawing all the frames paint and then another program that put them together in gif form. I still think it was pretty good lol.

/me is not an artist in any way shape or form.

heh, I also created crummy graphics in paint. I used to zoom in really close and get colour gradients going... I did pixel per pixel - damn it was tedious, but it turned out quite well I think. I never finished my little games back then.

As for now, I'd like to create a game sometime soon... but I'm a firm believer in aesthetic appeal and design and I'm something of an artist myself, so design is what I'm busy with now... especially given that I'm a novice programmer and need to learn a lot more!

Nice work on the penguin, xlordt, especially given that it's your first work... I don't dabble in 3D modelling much but I see potential there... keep us informed
