OMG I just realized you are moving and can control which direction you are going... Still, that doesn't change how freaking hard it is. Please, a background for goodness sake or something else for reference!
I didn't have any trouble running it, but that is because I wrestled with the STUPID pyOpenGL dependency on site packages (from what I could tell it only uses it to check which platform you are on too, which is a TERRIBLE reason for another dependency). Anyway, I sympathize with the compatibility problems.
Doesn't seem to run for me. I know nothing of python, but I've downloaded it before, and I think pygame, and double clicking this just makes a console window pop up briefly. Py2exe please, for us non-snakey folks!
I'm a "snakey" folk, and I couldn't get it to run either, even after downloading PyOpenGL. Any reason you just didn't want to use only PyGame?
The easy setup script worked after installing PyOpenGL, thanks. The game was pretty hard to last past a few seconds though. It took a while to realize you were actually moving...
Pretty good idea maybe, but I found it really hard to play. Would probably be nicer if the character was more responsive.
Waiting for exe, Couldn't make py to work. Tried es_setup.py
D:Downloadld11DathgaleOmnihunter>omnihunter.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

Setuptools version 0.6c8 or greater has been installed.
(Run "ez_setup.py -U setuptools" to reinstall or upgrade.)
Having pygame troubles, might try after reinstall of pygame. And if I get around to get PyOpenGL.
Really would've needed the background to be enjoyable. I really enjoy these kinds of games and this is no exception. Somehow it just felt sluggish to play, since the graphics didn't really support the gameplay.
no module pkg_resources. I'll try back later.
Need an exe version to rate, doesn't seem like it's going to happen, though. :(
Once I reached a wall I understood that I was actually moving. Pretty good, and very minimal.
waiting for potential exe..
Alright - seems like after installing Python, PyGame, PyOpenGL, and then that ez_setup thing it finally works! ;)
Couldn't really last longer then 10 seconds because either i'm missing something or all you can do is sorta swivel around to swat at the approaching rats. Death is very quick. Maybe i'm missing something though but I couldn't figure out how to play this, sorry. :(
Thanks for the setup script, probably would have skipped this entry otherwise. There seemed to be a few bugs in the rotation code - when I moved the mouse round one way, my guy occasionally moved the other, killing me. It would have been nice to rotate faster too, but the idea has promise. It was nice not having to worry about running around as well as defense. Some big white thing came down and landed on me too, I'm not quite sure what that was.
It's an interesting game, I think the biggest problem with it is graphics, I didn't realize that it was determining win/loss based on the orientation of my character until I read it - at which point the game was interesting - but it definitely needs to be more clear that there's an attack region, and a background texture would help a lot.
