| | | I want to talk a bit about the Artemis framework I've been playing with, but it won't mean much without some background knowledge of the entity/component paradigm of game design. This post, then, is a quick review of my experience with entities and components, and how they relate to the more traditional object-oriented (OO) paradigm, and in particular, what sucks about both. If you're familiar with the entity/component paradigm already, you may just want to skip over to my detailing ofEntity/Component Game Design That Works: The Artemis Framework ยป and read through this at your leisure. There's a few connections, but I'm trying to keep it at a pretty high level for now. | ||
