Alpha version... running out of time

Hi friends,

I just finished the core gameplay.. it is a simple platform in a wibbly-wobbly world.

I need to add more sprites, animation, enemies, leves and goals :( Also I need to compose a new song.

I'm not sure I will have enough time, but anyway I've learned a lot this week!!!!  

This is the game so far:

Download single exe file
Download source code 

Use righ and left to move, space to jump, Ctrl+F for fullscreen.

Enjoy!!!

You could check out musopen.org if you don't mind classical, music takes forever to compose.

 @adrwen,

Thank you, good idea... it really takes forever :)

I have an issue with my "game" that is killing me.

 Everything works great in my notebook but when I move to my main PC (a more powerful PC) if I press CTRL+F for fullscreen, all I see is a blinking screen and the sprites don't seem to move. Music keeps playing and I can hear my hero jumping so events are working but all I see is the screen flipping between black screen and my static sprites.
 
In widowed mode it works great

I'm using cocos2d CTRL+F feature for fullscreen

Any idea?

Thank you.

@jfroco: CTRL+F works as intended with my old gforce 6600.
Could be drivers problem, or a cocos-pyglet bug in the exact codepath executed in your machine. 
 
You can try to run this modified noisy.py  example:
http://paste.pocoo.org/show/197327/
(save the contents in a noisy_b.py file in the same dir as the pyglet example noisy.py exists)
The original script shows bouncing balls and some text, the modified handles key 'F' to toggle the fullscreen status.
If you see anomalies, then there is a problem in pyglet or the opengl drivers, you can post to the pyglet list to seek advice.
If you dont see anomalies, you can post in the cocos list.

Maybe you're doing the composing wrong — I just grabbed the mic and whistled something that I thought fitting :). You could also hum if that fits the game better. Or just strum random chords on a guitar.

I hope the expectations of my audience are not particularly high... :)

@claxo,

Thank you.. I will try that.

@cyhawk

Yes, excellent idea, I have a couple of songs that I just whistled something... it is a great technique.

Actually I just put together a simple melody for the game... unfortunately I run of out of time and I couldn't finish the game :(

If you want to check the song is here .. the bass is a "little" out of time I think ;)

Best regards

JF

@claxo,

Thank you. I updated my GPU driver and now it is working :)

Best regards
