Immediate Mode Graphical User Interface seminar (2007)

At the Assembly’07 event, I held a seminar presentation about Immediate Mode Graphical User Interfaces (IMGUI for short), together with Jari Komppa.

IMGUIs are a “new old” way of creating user interfaces in interactive applications. While not a silver bullet, these lightweight user interfaces can be much easier and faster to implement than any “real” widget library, and are sufficient in many cases. The session goes through theory, a bit of practise, and some case studies.

Note: Big thanks go to Jere Sanisalo from Housemarque, who made it possible to use Super Stardust HD as an additional reference (images & info in the slides).

Attending GDC 2007

I’ll be present at the Game Developers Conference 2007, held March 5-9, 2007, in San Francisco. We will have our own IGF booth there, showing off the Skinflake game Racing Pitch. Come to visit our booth for a chance to meet and chat with us, try the game and pick up our card, which are almost like collectors items. ;-P
