Pre-Release Number 5 Now Live

The biggest part of this update is the addition of levels. Right now there’s a strange bug with the backgrounds and repeating that I can’t quite tackle. If you see it and have any idea why it’s happening, feel free to tell me.

Levels are listed in levels/levels.txt. The game uses this list and separates them by their tags (Either [ARCADE] or [STORY]). The levels/ directory also contains a folder for each individual level. These folders contain a few things:

description.txt. A description for the game to use. Thumbnail.png. A thumbnail image for the button to use. levelInfo. A file that contains information about the level such as the run time and background info. enemies. A file that lists when and where enemies appear, plus what type of enemies they are. This is the heart of the level’s gameplay. Background-x.png. Background images that are numbered for the game to use.

The Git repo is here. As usual, you need Python 2.x and Pygame 1.9.1 to make this run. Report all bugs to svedgeburn@gmail.com
