hooray for pyweek!

I'm building a collection of binary eggs for python game development. I'm aiming to get binaries for the 3 major platforms available for Python2.5.

You can drop these eggs straight into the eggs folder of Skellington 1.7 and they become available to your game.

This is part of an ongoing effort to make binary distributions easier... testers and help appreciated!

skellington-1.8.tar.gz

Skellington 1.8 now has support for eggs which are not zip safe, such as PGU and Pygame!

Also in 1.8, support for versions of the same egg for each platform. Ie you can distribute mac, linux and win32 builds of one egg (eg the pygame egg), which will make it easier for players to run your game.

PGU and a Linux build of Pygame have now been eggified, and are available here: http://code.google.com/p/python-game-kit/wiki/PackageList

Hi Chaps.

If you can, please download this file: skellington-1.9-TEST.tar.gz

Then run python run_game.py, (using python2.5) and a small demo should appear. This test game should run on linux, mac, and windows _from_source_, as it includes platform specific eggs where needed. It doesn't package any required DLLS, such as the sdl libs, or zlib, which are assumed to be on the host system. If I can work out how to add these into the skellington, I will do so.

If anyone is able to test the skellington with py2app or py2exe, that would be helpful!
