LD25 — You are the Villain

jerrre: I developed/ran it on Mac OSX Mountain Lion with pygame 1.9.1 for python 2.6 and python 2.6 installed. Theoretically it should run the same on windows/linux if you download the right version of pygame and python for your OS. here are the links:

http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.6/
www.pygame.org

Quarry: it's huge because it has a 3 minute long WAV file for the bg music

Joncom and Dark Acre: Thanks, removed. I listed that by mistake. The only way to run the game is to download the source and run it through python with pygame installed.

Crowbeak: Thanks for the explanation, I removed the other links, and now just source appears. For some reason I didn't realize the field names were editable, so I thought windows at least was required. In terms of the Python version, I too, was sort of surprised about it, this was the first time I had touched pygame, and I had python 3.3 installed, only to realize that the only compatible Mac version of pygame that was all compiled and ready to go for my OS (Mountain Lion) was the one that supported 2.6. It seemed like there was a 32 bit version of pygame for 2.7 but I wasn't sure how that would work so I went ahead and dove into the 2.6 supporting version. If there is another way to do pygame for OSX for a newer version of python that doesn't involve compiling from source, let me know, that would be extremely helpful for future reference.

ceronman: Thanks a bunch! I'm going to try to learn some more about pygame and hopefully make some improvements on this, and hopefully try to finish my original idea for the gameplay at some point :)
