This was the first game/program i wrote in B3D, i started with a small boat demo and then added a bit, added a bit more and then finished up with that, with virtually no design or direction, the levels are inefficient, code is a mess (lol and how i cringe when i read my code for it :)
my point is, the results are not bad for a first try, B3D is real easy to learn,.
Ok i had a fair bit of programming/3d knowlage before which helped, but With what ive learned since in b3d (mostly thanks to this great community who really bend over to help) I could have made it 100x better. Also there are ways to do some of the shading and shadows etc. using clever software tricks or some of the cool libs people bring out from time to time.
Answer: if you want to write your first 3d game (even to sell!) then no you disnt buy the wrong thing.
