    Rainy Day - Game Project

    Yeah, the new color mechanic sounds good. Just be sure to differentiate your colored bacteria from Dr. Mario viruses. :) I'd like to see the colors correspond to specific abilities of the enemies. E.g. one color has spiky enemies, another has hopping enemies, another has floating enemies...

    By the way, I recommend BFXR. Increpare did a great job with all the added features (I needed locks!) and it's web-based: http://www.bfxr.net/

    Well that's annoying. It seems 'rpath' didn't get saved in the project file. Thanks for letting me know so I can look into it. :)

    RIOT Tag-Team coding competition

    Do you think you could provide more info? My teammate was running it on his Pandora alright. Is libsprig.so in the directory with the binary? What is the command you're using for running it? What distribution and window manager are you using? Do you have SDL installed? Can you check the...

    RIOT Tag-Team coding competition

    I figured out what was slowing down the game (broken broadphase collision detection for walls) and fixed it locally. When the compo is over, I'll update the game with better controls. I didn't realize that my input class was not going to cut it until too late, so I reverted to these controls...

    That was on Linux. I'm not sure what you mean by 'solo'. I just waited a long time and it shook and shook without breaking. A couple hours later, I restarted the game and he was hatched. (No I did not just sit there watching a shaking egg for hours! :) )

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release C

    Something simple and helpful would be to mark a sector red after you visit every star in it. The tougher way would be to red-out each section of a sector that you've explored all the stars in. Maybe just a special marker for stars that you've visited? Are you open to code contributions? Is...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release C

    Sounds cool. You might not have noticed a difference when zooming if you didn't specify the background color (or made it black or white). Other colors would probably turn out wrong. There is an issue with transparency that I hope to resolve sometime soon. That one is pretty important for...

    Beta Galactic Artifact - Release C

    Hey, it seems I'm late to the party... Can I be any help with using Sprig? From what I've seen so far, you have concerns over Sprig's color format: SDL_gfx seems to use RGBA for everything... Sprig does it "right" ;) With any function that uses a color, you must have that color in the same...
