MineClimbeR(L) - 2015 7dRL - SUCCESS

[v4nz666]

This was my first year competing in the 7drl challenge, and I had a great time.

I've created a short gameplay video, and it's available on youtube at http://www.youtu.be/3P-XVMXWc8Y.

Also, check out my dev blog (of sorts, more of a post mortem, really) on github at https://github.com/v4nz666/MineClimbeR-L-/wiki

I would love to hear what people think!

cheers,

Nice idea and good game (but sometimes frustrating ). However, not everyone have installed python (and probably no one will install python for one game) so I'm recommending you do executable files for windows/unix asap

Thanks, Avagart. Glad you enjoyed the game, even if you found it a bit frustrating. It _is_ a roguelike, after all Not sure how many times I've dies playing NetHack, but it's an aweful lot

I'll be working towards executables tonight. I had hoped to get them in before the competition was finished, but alas, bug fixing and features were higher on my list of priorities.

Unfortunately, it's back to Real Life today, so I'll be able to devote a bit less time. Hopefully the executables don't prove to be too tricky.

cheers, mate, and thanks for checking out the game!

I've got a windows executable created, though I've not yet been able to craft up a *Nix standalone. I reckon anyone using Linux, or otherwise would be able to get python and pygame installed. I'd like to get it working, but it seems pygame and any of the python packaging tools don't play very well together. I'll keep trying, as I'm a Linux user, and have no interest in neglecting that part of the community.

For now, find the windows executable at

http://putmax.com/files/zWLQx2eM/MineClimbeR.zip

should be a simple unzip and run main.exe to get going.

md5sum for the archive is

$ md5sum MineClimbeR.zip

Works perfecly, good job
One little report - 'You dodged the the attack'?


edit: emmm, nope. When I was trying to craft, game crashed. I had some copper and a lot of wood. I make anchors. Anchors append in my inventory, I hit [enter] and - crash.


OK, it's bug in code, not in executable. I replicate this.
