I made this for Kokoromi's Gamma4 one-button showcase, which took place in San Francisco on 10 March 2010.
It wasn't selected, but it was later shown in Montréal, at Eastern Bloc's Housewarming Party, from 7 to 11 September 2011, and is also available on my itch.io page.
An Android version is also available, which had been ported to the Orx engine – though I've lost the code to both that one and a potential Unity port.
The project makes use of SDL 1.2 specifically, along with the following related libraries:
The following notes were written when the project was completed in 2010, and were mostly for my own benefit. I include them here in the interest of preservation.
This is a one-button game. The keys Z, X, or Space can be used as "the button," as well as the A button on an Xbox controller (or equivalent). Press the button to make a selection and advance dialogue. Press or hold the button in each of the minigames – tutorials are available for each.
- IMG_Load() should always be followed up by a SDL_DisplayFormat()!
- "DEAD" is inspired by Brian Eno's "Music for Airports" and a snowy morning.
- Some constraints good (all minigames within frame -> unified style!)
- Other constraints bad (minigames must be strictly diametric opposites -> limiting)
- WINDOWS
- Compiled "Multithreaded DLL" (/MD)
- [Obsolete] Linker ignores these libraries: libc.lib, libcmt.lib, libcd.lib, libcmtd.lib, msvcrtd.lib
- Android version on Google Play.
- PC version on itch.io.
- The TIGSource thread.
