Skapong’s done. Really, I’ve finished it. At the same time «Swing swing submarine» has made their «Blocks that matter», Gaslamp games will release «Dungeons of Dreadmor» any second now, but I — I have written a simple pong.
There are things that I didn’t do (e.g I haven’t touched the network play at all, so you may play only in hotseat or against the AI) and the things I wanted to do, and things that are still I’m going to do (a proper packaging, for example) but, nevertheless, I call this generally done.
Curiously, if you use windows, then you’re the lucky one: I have a good build of windows right here:
https://github.com/downloads/einars/skapong/skapong.zip
That’s a simple zip. I haven’t made a proper installer yet, but that’ll do for now.
As for the linux — I’m currently learning how to make a nice .deb (I’m not using ubuntu myself and that complicates things) and a binary package for the Arch should be up soon. But you may build the skapong yourself. The instructions are in the readme, linux rolls this way.
Anyway, now I have plans for something a bit more worthwhile. No, not a MMORPG, killer of WoW — but not exactly galaxians or tetris either.
