In Part 6 of the SFML Steam Games Series, we have a lot of platforming and RPG-ing going on, so lets dive right in! Vagante I’ve seen the name quite a few times, but never actually tried the game until now. It’s a nice pixel-art platformer with RPG or more specifically roguelike elements. Select different […]

SFML News – Week 8 & 9 (2023)
SFML Development Updates The last two weeks felt a bit slower than usual in the SFML development space, but this might have been, because I was quite busy. However, this doesn’t mean that nothing happened, on the contrary! We got a cool new feature, allowing you to set a window icon from an sf::Image, which […]
SFML Steam Games – Part 5

Serving Files From a ZIP Archive in .NET 6
In recent months, some co-workers and I have slowly started to transform Jobbr, a non-invasive .NET job server, from a .NET Framework to a .NET 6 project. We tried to keep as much as possible in place, and with that also came the serving of static files directly from a ZIP archive. Due to migrating […]

Using Open AI’s Whisper With SFML
Yesterday, I came across whisper.cpp, which is a C/C++ implementation for OpenAI’s Whisper, an open source, automatic speech recognition (ASR) neural network. It’s simple enough to use, beyond the slightly clunky C-like API, and produces great results, of generating text, based on audio data of spoken words, and that without requiring a connection to some […]
