Hello, any help appreciated.
I havent't fooled with programming for a while, 20+ years i suppose. I was telling my son how my friends and I used to fool around coding and pranking each other with code when we were younger. My son who is 8 years old is interested in modifying some games to make them personalized. For example I'd like to take a space invaders game or whatever and change the sprites or pics to make something different for fun. I can do this right now with a c64 game if I wanted but I was looking for a more up to date way to do things. I did computational programming in college but not any kind of gaming stuff. I used to program the c64 during my youth and other than that took fortran/c/c++ etc stuff in college when I was a physics major. I'd basically like to find some source code and modify it slightly to have some fun. Any guidance or direction appreciated. Thanks ahead of time. Gary
