sdl-config ... doesn’t expand in the makefile (at least with GNU Make), you may want to change

SDL_CFLAGS??? = sdl-config --cflags
SDL_LIBS??? = sdl-config --libs

to

SDL_CFLAGS??? = $(shell sdl-config --cflags)

SDL_LIBS??? = $(shell sdl-config --libs)

otherwise it compiles fine.

When playing it runs fine, then it starts stuttering and in the console is displayed:

“WARNING: Ghost return to home error, fixed”

Each time the message it displayed the game pauses.

Then when I press ESC the game quits. I thought it crashed but I saw

“QUIT
SDL+OGL application successfully closed”

Personally I’d prefer if pressing ESC brought me back to the menu, rather than quit outright. Its what I’m accustomed to in other games.

Other than that, nice job. Like the effects.–

ancient rubbish code, this all started when i was learning C & SDL so, yea,
its a mess

Hi “goumba2k5-web”,

As stated, the game is currently a late alpha version, so it is by no means 100%.
I’ll discuss the makefile with my Linux guy tonight and will change it if necessary.

As far as the warning you are getting in console:
"WARNING: Ghost return to home error, fixed"
This is a bug that I am currently trying to fix now.
(will definitely be fixed before a Beta release)

QUESTION: How often does the above bug occur?
On my side it does not occur too often,
which makes finding and fixing it difficult :frowning:

So thanks for playing, I’ll add you to the Staff screen for the next build!!!------------------------

Hi,

Thanks for playing. The [Options] menu option is not done yet. How did you like the game?------------------------

Once it starts, which was about after five minutes of playing it happened every second or two. When i get a chance, probably next week I’ll build with -ggdb and take a better look.

The game seems very familiar :wink:

I still prefer to drop a quarter in the 48-in-1 arcade machine at the
bar down the street from my house.

I think the collision box for collecting dots should be a little
bigger. At least a million times playing your game, I tried to eat a
stray dot and then 180, but I would 180 too soon and then have to
backtrack!!!On Fri, Feb 26, 2010 at 4:55 PM, JeZ-l-Lee wrote:

Hi Danny,

Thanks for playing!
I can easily change the collision box when player is near a dot.
I’ll play around with the value and will make a change if necessary.
Thanks again for playing, I will add you to the staff…------------------------
