[Timelapse] Warm-Up Weekend Game - Preparation for Ludum Dare 22

Timelapse of the Warm-Up Weekend preparation for Ludum Dare 22.

** UPDATE **
The Applet works now, unles you are on Linux and use the IcedTea plugin. Try the downloadable version or install the Oracle plugin if that's your case.

The game is not quite finished, and never will be, because i don't really feel like finishing it. It only lacks effects, explosions, a title and game over screens, and basically those little things that make games feel like games, but are not hard AT ALL to code.

This is the first real thing I code with Slick2D, and well, it went real fine. Images work, Sound work (except I needed to re-download LWJGL...), and basically everything works. The only thing I am STILL having trouble with is the AppletLoader from LWJGL, which is complaining about certificates and stuff.

The video ends a bit suddenly because, after that, there's about an hour and a half of searching google to see what the hell happened with the Applet, and I just left that out.

To play the game, go to http://darkhogg.es/ldwu22. Remember: The applet won't work. Even if it starts to load, you'll get an error. There's a download link further down. Extract it from the ZIP and double-click the JAR. That should work. If you are on linux, try this:

cd /path/to/extracted/game
chmod +x warmup22.jar
java -jar warmup22.jar

I *HOPE* it does work for you, and I hope I resolve my little trouble with the Applet for Ludum Dare next weekend...

Thanks for watching! See yo at Ludum Dare 22!

I want to run your game on Mac, but this error happen:

ERROR:org.lwjgl.DefaultSysImpl­ementation.getPointerSize()I

java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError­: org.lwjgl.DefaultSysImplementa­tion.getPointerSize()I

you can send me the project to recompile?

[Darkhogg]

@tejonBiker Looks like a problem with the native libraries. I don't have access to a Mac, so I can't really help you here. I will post the source, possibly tomorrow, when I fix whatever is happening with the applet.

Sorry! >.<

esta bastante guay , como haces lo del timelapse con el scrot ?

[Darkhogg]

@takushi Lo encontré por los internetes y me hice un script muy tontorrón:

PERIOD=3 # Periodo en segundos entre capturas

while [ 1 ]; do scrot $(date +%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S).png sleep "$PERIOD"

done

Y thanks :P

[Darkhogg]

@takushi BTW, YT se ha comido el poco formato que tenia ese script, antes del sleep iría un semicolon y tal...

"Try the downloadable version or install the Oracle plugin if that's your case."

Oracle has revoked the general licence.

There is now only OpenJDK-6-JRE and OpenJDK-7-JRE...
