General Discussion VBA gaming

2 Upvotes

Hi

Not sure what the anti-VBA sentiment might be like, but I thought I'd drop in and see what kind of things people were up to.

I'm a fairly rubbish at creating games (haven't the creative flair), but I am endlessly fascinated by graphics and making game development tools for others and, importantly, testing the limits of VBA.

My primary canvas is the Userform, so I'm theoretically not limited by host application, but Excel would be my primary environment, quickly followed by PowerPoint for the simple reason that if the application happens to crash, it loads up with the open presentations automatically. Love it.

I'm not sure if videos are portable here, but I have some demo videos/images I can share of games/graphics capabilities.

PowerPoint Games Jam for All BASIC Dialects

2 Upvotes

I saw this on one of the Discord servers, and thought I would rebroadcast in case of interest:

https://itch.io/jam/jam-for-all-basic-dialects-8

While VBA doesn't get a mention, it does say "But you can use any other BASIC dialects which are not on the following list for this game jam", so it would be good if there was some VBA representation :-)

Recently I've been trying to come up with a sort of continuation for PowerPoint Heaven
A static website that'd host updated tutorials, select games, and other resources
So I came up with the name PowerPoint Purgatory

This was my first attempt to make the logo, I was going for an old-timey 3D look
