Puzzle Studio - mobius - 13-Feb-2014
how close can the graphics be to CC1 or 2? Are there copyright problems with this? I notice the flippers and things are identical.
What I planned on doing first was addressing the monsters. It'd be nice to have them look like actual monsters. [i don't plan on making them look exactly the same, I'll have to see how I can do it or how it turns out]
an option to change the volume or turn off music would be nice. (I like the music a lot but don't always want it) Also there are no sounds; if I can find some sounds to use would like that as well?
I might look at some older games that nobody remembers; tell me if there are any copyright problems with that. I notice similar sounds used in adventure games quite often (but idk if that means anything). I probably won't be able to get ogg sounds though.
Can sounds or graphics from tileworld be used?

oh and I noticed a possible bug; when I pushed a bowling ball (is that what they're called?) onto a trap, then pressed the button to release it, it didn't quite work right. It didn't move at first then the ball moved away without animation 1 square. Then I could seemingly move it again by pressing the button. Ask me if you want a more detailed explanation.

Yeah, give me any graphics/music, I don't mind until I get a takedown notice, which I will ignore nicely :-)

A new update is coming along :-)
I plan to do:
OpenGL extentions up to 2.0, you can finally make cool rendering now :-)
If you want to make some elements while I'm still working on the update, here's a thing to note:
C code:
glBegin();
becomes Lua code:
gl.Begin()
New font engine, uses bitmaps
More of the code moved to Lua
yeahh.

I don't understand why I can't move right in Puzzle Studio at all. Is this a bug or has it not been coded into the game yet?

Like, move in the --> direction?
Are you sure your right key isn't broke?
Use the arrow keys not WASD.

Puzzle Studio.. is almost cross platform :-)
I removed all the windows-specific stuff.
Now just need to
make a replacement for the timer,
make a file browser
iron out some of the bugs
Then I'll make another release :-)
Something in my image loading code is crashing the program... I wonder what it is..

What is this timer? Is it a way to set a time limit for the levels?
And why do you need to make a file browser? Can't you make it use the file browser that comes pre-installed with the operating system?

The timer calls a function every 10 miliseconds so the game will run the same speed even if your computer is faster or slower.
In order to make the code portable I need to add cross-platform code for the file browser and dialog boxes.

I really didn't think that porting the game would be so hard...
