[ Threads @ 17:01 ] Contrary to popular belief ...

Level 11 (Secrets and Lies) of our game: Hex Trap, is not impossible. If you're stuck maybe you just need to look at the problem from a different angle.

Just trying to avoid some DNWs here ;).

[ scav @ 22:16 ] Done. Tagged and bagged.

For those interested in the development process we used, the repo is on github, at
http://github.com/scavpy/Scav-Team-Pyweek-Aug-2010.

Music was composed on musescore by Threads.  Sound effects recorded on scav's phone and messed about in kwave (which is shit).

Graphic design in Blender and GIMP by Threads, 90/10 programming split between scav and Threads.

Final boss by J.R.R Tolkein.

No animals were harmed during the making of this game. Except a cat. But not much.

[ scav @ 21:00 ] All done but for the polishing...

We have a game; it has enough levels, it has enough challenge. It has pretty colours and interesting sound effects as planned.

Tomorrow is polishing day.  A day for experimental git branches, bug fixes and final testing on whatever windows machines we can find.

[ scav @ 09:33 ] Sound lag in pygame on Ubuntu - a solution

I had a problem with lag in sound effects from pygame (on ubuntu).

The solution is:
 apt-get remove pulseaudio
 apt-get install esound

[ scav @ 16:23 ] Going well so far

We have a game.  It's not very good, and it has only 3 levels.  But we have a level editor.
And we have monsters. Everything's better with monsters.
