Its C++ homebrew runs best under Ubantu Linux. Enjoy!

This game was put on hold, since I had no time to develop it. I have moved on to another game of this nature, actually developing it when your message arrived.
Why SNES ran similar games at full 60 FPS? It must be Java.

OK, this is an MMORPG I have been working for the last two years
It`s made in Java and uses code from the book Killer Programming Games.

There's your problem... that book is fucking awful.
And people, stop mocking Java. It may have been slow when the first version was released, but with the latest version, Java can easily match, if not overpower C++. Java game development is no longer a joke.
Also, use your own graphics... it looks stupid with all the Warcraft images everywhere.
>>8 Java can easily match, if not overpower C++
Java can't match C/C++. Java has no pointers and have to recompile code on startup: it runs inside virtual machine and every array access goes through bounds check.
In Java, for (I=0; I<N; I++) g(A[f(I)]) would expand into
for (I=0; I<N; I++) {
int J = f(I);
if (J >= length(A)) exception(Array index out of bounds");
g(A[J]);
}

One could use a third party compiler and/or run time that does not do bounds checks. But then code that depends on the exception being thrown would instead deliberately crash the program, unfortunately. Jit solves the slow down from running on the virtual machine. Saving/caching machine code generated by the jit solves the problem of the slow down from running the jit at start up. There is still the overhead of the use of garbage collection when malloc and free would suffice.

I'm sure there's something else that could (will) be said to make this thread worse, but I'm at a loss for what it could be. Probably something related to Minecraft.
