    Independent Game Developers

    Technically, Pandora is a very impressive machine. However, I feel it is a step backwards from the gp2x in gaming "ethos". Consider that the gp2x was an attempt at an open-source gaming system. It was a natural platform for independent game developers to get started. Sadly I think pandora is...

    Retrovirus

    RetroVirus (no relation) is a homebrew puzzle game of the match-colours-to-make-them-disappear-ilk. If you like these types of games (and I love them), then you will be very pleased with this game. The game is easily set apart from others in the genre by the detail that has gone into every...

    Sound Playing Too Fast

    Hello, I'm using beta2 of the python/pygame package, which is based on SDL, and the sounds seem to play double speed (and therefore high-pitched). Has anyone encountered a similar problem, and do they have a solution? Thanks, Luke

    Testers Wanted For Closed Beta

    Hello, The first beta version of my new game, retrovirus RTS, should be ready in a few days. Is there anyone (maybe three people) willing to participate in a closed beta test? It is quite a complicated game and I really need it tested quite hard, so it would probably be a chore rather than...

    Mplayer Source

    Hi! I've had a great idea for a new game, but ideally I need something for playing short videos. Mplayer would be ideal (I have some experience coding with it on linux). I had a look for it but it doesn't seem to be with the kernel source? Dumb question I know but is there a link? (I checked...
