Sorry guys, no release yet, but when it is ready, you can bet it will be GPL! Smile

Is this a lemmings type game or a worms type game?

Neither. You control a ball. In the current version I've disabled the extra mouse cursor that would normally be there, so you can't see it (I'm just using the regular X cursor atm)
When you click the left mouse button, the ball accelerates towards the cursor at a set level of acceleration. It bounces off stuff as well.
When you click the right mouse button, the ball fires some sort of laser weapon. Those are the multi-coloured particles you can see in the screenshot.
The point of the penguins is to just sit there. The next stage is adding enemies. These will try and kill you (the ball) and the penguins. Once you die, or all of the penguins die on a level, you loose. If you kill all the enemies before they wipe out the penguins you advance to the next level.
I was trying to go for something a bit different. Smile

The stars in the background have parralax scrolling set up, so they move at different scroll rates, giving a nice 3d sort of effect.
The next things to do are:
1) a level editor and code to load levels from disk (at the moment, I just set up the map array manually in a header file)
2) Add enemies. I need to create some graphics for these.

LOL. I've just spent the last few hours trying to figure out why it wasn't drawing the enemies on screen, and it turned out that I had some >'s where they should have been <'s. Laughing

Source + binary are up.

Don't read too far into this as it is though. I still need to make a level editor and so the player can die. Once those two things are done, I can make playability more of an issue.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to go about doing a level editor, I'd appreciate them, I've knocked one up, but its crap.

Is it licensed under the GPL? You don't want anyone stealing it! Laughing

I don't think he can mr_ed ........ seems to me SCO already patented that code.....

nukes · Posted: Tue Feb 10, 2024 5:50 pm Post subject:

Yeah, its under the GPL. I left the AUTHORS file out of the source distribution by the looks of it. All the code is mine, but I did borrow some graphics from Pingus, and should give them credit.

I meant Xeroid's. Laughing

I *know* that yours is, Nukes.
