[Games] talk about using REBOL for games

I cannot improve that, it's from Fastsprings' Amazon cloud. Maybe 
they should be renamed to Slowspring:) Maybe it's on your way slowed 
down.

it sounds like the offer is open only to pirates but not to people 
who already don't have the game?
Oldes

[617]
It's also for wannabe pirates:) No for everybody.. it's a form of 
advertisiment.

You're encouraging piracy!

Oldes, did the exposure on Slashdot sell more games?
Oldes

I don't know.. I've no such a data. And I do not read Slashdot.

ok, I just stumbled onto an article there and several commenters 
noted they hadn't heard of the game. thought it could be a marketing 
opportunity.

Oldes, a friend asked me what the prospects of an iPad version of 
Machinarium would be now that the dev-tools restrictions have been 
lifted. Is there an official response available anywhere?
Oldes
15-Sep-2010
[623]
Which restrictions? We would like to make iPad version.. at this 
moment we are working on PS3 and WiiWare versions.. once the PS3 
version will be ready, there will be no problems to port it to whatever 
as we are converting the Flash sources to C code.

Oldes, various non-Apple developer tools and libraries were prohibited 
from use on iOS devices, but this has recently been lifted.

minecraft, still in alpha, probably the best indie game of 2010 (and 
before)  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ogA9Bhh4luA
It's stealing all my free time (and some work time too)

oh my god.... can't show that to my legomaniac kid  :-D

Yes, it's very lego-ish !!

But it's epic too, have a look here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaMTedT6P0I

Minecraft web site is currently down, so everyone can try it for 
free: http://www.minecraft.net/

This may be of interest to those of you who need to [quickly] create 
hexagonal game maps ... but don't want to master a complex CAD program. 
My QAD attempt at a declarative solution yields results like this:

The prototype code can be found here:

	http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8269768/MapMaker.zip


No documentation, but the sample map file (ACW.r) shows how the PNG 
above was generated. Note you can drag the map around by click-moving 
it. Map, game and software still WIP.

Did you code that ACW.r file by hand? Wow.
Ashley
23-Sep-2010
[638]
Thanks. ACW.r coded by hand, but helped by the fact that I used a 
real map as a background image to trace over (the compass rose method 
of indicating paths is really easy ... "start in Cairo, go 3 hexes 
north, etc"). By comparison, I spent days trying to get the same 
results with CC3 (Campaign Cartographer 3) ... but I'm only a casual 
CC3 user.

well, what can I say... Ashley is directly responsible for my failure 
to resist getting Civ V.... yes... your tile map tilted me into buying 
Civ V

Machinarium's PlayBook version mentioned on GDC:

http://unplugged.rcrwireless.com/index.php/20110302/devices/7239/we-play-with-the-playbook-at-gdc-video/


Unfortunately it requires to be in AVM2 bytecode (usingActionScript3) 
so I must rewrite the game :/  But I use REBOL to help me with the 
task and a nasty REBOL script to scale the game to the correct resolution 
1024x600.

Oldes: I just mentioned Machinarium on twitter and my designer wrote 
me out of nothing how he really likes this game and has played it 
over 3 times even though he knows it by heart

Oldes, nice to see Machinarium at number 10 in the top ten paid apps 
in the Mac App Store. :-)

We just released one smaller project. It's Flash again, and almost 
no REBOL used this time.. only just a few file manipulations and 
find/replace while moving from AS2 to AS3 code :/

Cool, but....................... I must be too old to understand

Maxim

its pointless cool, but cool nonetheless.  


In art  it would have been an interactive multi-media project.  the 
fact that its looped re-inforces this even more.
Maxim

anyone here play GT5.... I'm so pissed off by this game.


everytime I play I get aggravated.  If anyone here is a game designer 
this is the game to study about how *not* to build a game.
