Trash Game: AGameWhereYouMoveAndPushButtons

By Jeytas Date 2013-11-14 18:34

Hey guys,
my friend asked me about a week ago, that I should make a game for him. He said, that you should move, jump and push buttons. So I called the Game AGameWhereYouMoveAndPushButtons. So the game is just trash but my first game that I made with Gosu :) So I hope that it's ok for that. Here's a download. (And yes it is very weird! :D)

Exciting. Now shock your friend by suddenly making a serious game! :P

Hey I went ahead and checked out your game. Looks pretty good for only a half hour of work. This game shows how adding just a few sound effects can really enhance a game. My personal preference would be a link to the github repo, rather than a zipfile, but that's just my personal preference. When I extracted the .zip file, I got a ton of extra files and git garbldeegoop. Maybe I did something wrong when I was extracting it, but at any rate I was able to find a link to the github repo and clone from there.

In order for it to work on Linux I had to fix one case-sensitivity issue: "Player.png" in the code, versus "player.png" in the data file.

It probably would be a good idea to identify the controls in the readme. Something like "CONTROLS: A, D, Spacebar, MouseClick" would be sufficient.

Nice work. I will look forward to seeing your next project, or version 2.0 of EinSpielWoManRumläuftUndKnöpfeDrückt. You might also consider a shorter title, such as "TrashGame" (not sure how to say that in German), making it easier to get in and out of the folder from command line / terminal.

Hey Marivn, looks good. I like the portals. The minimap (with button "m") is a nice touch.

It probably wouldn't hurt to add some basic descriptions of which keys to push in the readme (I had to examine the code to figure out that the shift button is used to jump).

Best wishes,
Matt
