How do you start playing the game?
Oops, I was looking in the readme and didn't see ""python main.py" in the description above.
I received this error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "main.py", line 3, in <module>
import pygame
ImportError: No module named pygame
ran ok....it REALLY dumps you into the game though, i was hit twice before i figured out i could move, and was gameover not a second after i realized i could shoot. Sound would have helped a lot too.
Rusty Moyher: I'm sorry that's an issue for you. You need to install pygame before you can start playing.
I apologize for the fact that I couldn't do much to handle distribution- plain source release is about all I can do.
If you install pygame, it should work fine, though.
Thank you both for playing so far!
It's good that you had different enemies. Would have been nice to be able to shoot in different directions, not just up. Here's a tip. Use pygame.key.get_pressed rather than key events for motion, so's I don't have to keep hitting the direction I want to go.
I've not been able to get pygame running so I can't rate it.
Worked OK in Win7 + Python 2.7.2 + pygame 1.9.2pre. Good idea and you finish your game. Unfortuntately, it lacks a lot of things.
