Hey everyone, here’s a link to my first SDL game (requires SDL and
SDL-image – SDL-mixer comes included with the source since it was
modified). It’s not quite finished, but it’s playable :). Give it a shot
and let me know if you have any trouble getting it to run. Thanks!

Your game runs well on my Win2K. Just a suggestion, but I think the ball
shaking left & right is disturbing. Do you know Rez on PS2 ? If not, go
try it now 
It’s a great interactive sounds/musics game (from Sega,
should I say obviously ?).–
Tek
Loving it ;=)
I was shaking head left to right while playing, It reminds me the real
time composing mode of fasttraker
good job

This ball is helping me alot. It’s just another kind of metronome. Cool
idea.

The last option :). In the sample list of race.mod it mentions a German
rave, so I put some fake German as the comment for the song on the
website. (Don’t tell meine Lehrerin about it - she would probably
explodierte!)
Hope you enjoyed the game!

That’s really pretty cool, I shall definitely be wasting some more time on
it soon.
Some suggestions:
Add -I/usr/X11R6/lib to the Linux makefile thingamy
Joystick support (joystick buttons are much nicer to hit repeatedly
than keyboard buttons, and much less noisy).
Mouse support (as above).
A list of links to your favourite sites for dowloading mods, or at
least one link to someone else’s list of links.

Oh, also, fullscreen support (either command line option or config menu),
and variable resolution menu. I assume the highscores thing isn’t
implemented yet?

I really should have read the README before posting stuff.

Just curious - what headers/libs did you need this for? Also, I assume
you mean -I/usr/X11R6/include and/or -L/usr/X11R6/lib? I’ll add them in
then - thanks!
- Joystick support (joystick buttons are much nicer to hit repeatedly
than keyboard buttons, and much less noisy).
Is it not letting you configure the joystick in the menu? I use mine (a
USB gamepad) in the game all the time. I think I pretty much just used
the standard SDL_Joystick functions, so if your joystick works in other
SDL games and not this one lemme know
- Mouse support (as above).
Yeah, that’s just plain not implemented yet…seems like it could be a
one-way trip to carpal tunnel!

As you mentioned later, some of that stuff is in the README / website
(just edit the file init.cfg, at least until I stop being lazy and put
it in the config menu). And all the best MODs are at
http://www.modarchive.com :).
Were the high scores not being saved? It should keep your highest score
for each song (even if you don’t play the song all the way through). I
imagine this could happen if the init.cfg (or ~/.marfitude.cfg) file is
not writable, since that’s where it saves the scores.
Sorry for spamming the list - I just figure this would help if others
are having similar concerns with the game :). Thanks for playing!

GL. It’s the default location for installing openGL libs on Mandrake,
maybe others too.

Oops, I meant -L/usr/X11R6/lib.

Ah, yes, the joystick does work, I just didn’t read the README before
playing.

Yeah, but it would still be cool.

Ah, I see where I went wrong now, it’s /not/ init.cfg you must edit, it is
~/.marfitude.cfg. Perhaps you could say as such in the README?
And all the best MODs are at

OK, thanks, a link on your site might help others.

Oh, actually it is working, I was just confused as when it says “New high
score” it doesn’t do anything - it doesn’t show a high score list or ask
you to enter your name or anything.
