I spent some time watching Jman12390 playing DOTA 2 via his twitch stream. I have never played this game but it does look interesting and fun to watch
If you are interested in watching also www.twitch.tv/Jman12390 is where to look

The Code
So last week was kind of a push to get out the video. I spend like 3-4 days working until about 2-3am knowing that I had to wake up at 6am for work the next morning. So this week I took a few days off. Well I was reading a lot (that still counts). I have been reading about pathfinding. I have been trying to find what method/algorithm would be best. There are two main ways for pathfinding to work. One called Navigation Mesh and one called A*. Navigation mesh is great and performs better than A*, but is much more complicated to implement and keep up. A* works using a grid which we already have being the maps are based on tiles. And while slower, A* still does pretty good. Somewhere in the neighborhood of a few milliseconds to run completely. So I'm going to spend the next few days working on getting an A* implementation working (simply because it is so much easier) and see how that holds up.
In case you hadn't seen the 2nd vid from last week:
The Story
We're still debating on a name for the game, trying to get that balance between something that gives a feel for the game, without it being something that sucks.

I added another video. This one is higher resolution and shows a little more.
