I think you forgot to include an executable!

ryuurei 2013-04-29 15:18

It's written in Python, so you just run the main.py file with `python main.py'

ryuurei 2013-04-29 15:56

To make things more clear (should have written this before, it's my bad):
Change directories into the LudumDare26/src directory.
run `python main.py` to play the game.

requires pygame library.

Will you give out a compiled version? :)

johnnysix 2013-04-30 21:02

For those of us less tech savvy, a compiled version would be nice - the image is compelling enough to pique interest! :)

I've added a new `windows` release. It basically has exactly what the source release has plus a dist directory containing a main.exe file that provides all dependencies (python and pygame) so it can be played automatically.
However, since this isn't like a native executable, and simply contains the whole Python interpreter, it's a substantially larger download.

Some bugs, the ship doesn't spin properly, some times colored things don't seem to get hit, and when I finally managed to kill all of the correct color, nothing happened.

Plus for music/sound, minus for bugs/controls. And what's with the confusing background?

I kind of didn't understand this game :c

fun ! it reminded me scramble in the 80s

Really interesting concept! I liked the music too but I couldn't figure out how to play very well.

Pretty cool idea, although I found it hard to control. The scoring scheme is neat, and the music was great :)

Great music and atmosphere. I enjoyed making streams of bullets while rotating the ship.

I can“t find the binary...

cosmologicon 2013-05-04 15:14

Neat idea but the performance is really bad for me. I timed it and it took 39 seconds to make a full rotation. My computer is pretty slow, but it should be able to handle the likes of this game.

I'm on a Mac. Sorry :(

cosinep 2013-05-06 15:51

Loved the music, but everything moved so slowly that I gave up after a while.

"Website is currently unreachable" :/ Too bad, your game looked nice!

Can't download either. You should mention in the source link that it's in pygame, because when I saw "windows" I was ready to give up and go on with the next game; but PyGame I can run easily under Linux!

dst 2013-05-18 22:51

I liked the graphics, and controls works great too :)

Excellent music! Probably the best soundtrack of all 100+ LD26 games I tried. To play the game under Arch Linux I had to install python2-pygame instead of python-pygame. I played a bit shooting everywhere and stopped after a while for a lack of goal (and also the game had slowed down a lot.) With a score, faster-moving squares and the ability to lose it could make a fun game.
