Those newer to programming in C++ often fail to understand that compilers like GCC or Clang require a specific link order for the libraries in use or they don’t know what order to pick. Working on SFML and helping out in its community, I’ve had the pleasure to help people fix their linker errors many […]
Looking at the last news entry on the NightlyBuilds website, it seems like it has nearly been two years since I last update the Nightly Builds. https://nightlybuilds.ch/ One of the reasons I didn’t bother as much to keep them updated was, because we at SFML now have setup a Continues Integration system which allows anyone […]
A bit delayed but here we go! New Games This section only lists games that I was actually able to play for a bit. Squid Blaster This game feels a bit like a mix of Space Invaders and a classic side-scroller. You are a turtle and are fighting against the evil squids, eat fish to […]

I’m back from my relaxing vacations in the city Lisbon and the topics are piling up, so get ready for a longer read! But first a picture from my vacations to make everyone jealous. :D New Projects
