So what do you get?


The TGB Adventure Kit provides a basic TorqueScript framework, integrated and customizable from LevelBuilder, which you can use to jump start your game project today:

• Player object with support for running, strafing, jumping, and firing a weapon.
• Dynamic camera object which can track the player while performing triggered smooth zooms.
• A spawn point system including randomization and enemy spawning.
• Triggered automated firing turrets.
• Exploding object system including splash damage effects.
• Simple ranged audio emitter system.
• Interior triggers for fading out building front faces.
• Basic goal based AI framework including steering behaviors.
• Level transition triggers.
• Support for filtered analog joystick controls including XBox/360 gamepads.
• Miscellaneous console utility functions like loadlevel, god mode, ghost mode, respawn, and a few easter eggs.

In addition to the TorqueScript framework code you get a starter library of production ready high quality tiles, sprites, and sound effects. These are ready for prototyping or even to be used in your shipping game. The kit includes:

• Tiles and transition overlays for grass, long grass, light dirt, dark dirt, sand, and gravel.
• Overlay tile decorations including a dark dirt road, various grass highlights, dark dirt plowed field, and more.
• Full animated ocean and lake tiles for building large and small bodies of water including streams.
• Sprites for plants, small weeds, flowers, hedges, and clearings.

• Two piece buildings and tents for small walk in environments.
• Various sprites for stones of different materials and colors.
• A large set of swaying animated tree sprites.
• A fully animated sprite version of the Torque Orc.

To top it all off we have provided detailed TDN documentation which walks the reader thru creating a new project, working with sorting layers, collision in a top down game, effective use of the config datablocks, and the inner workings of the demo code.
