2 days + Incredible Boredom = This

Over the weekend I decided to play around with the Chipmunk Physics library, and it resulted in this breakout clone-ish game.

There are still a couple of things that need doing (more maps, some more bits of audio), but on the whole it works quite well. The graphics could also do with an update, as they are pretty much all programmers art (aka, badly made by me).

I also decided to make an highscore table visualiser for my website for a bit of fun, it allows you to generate highscore table images you can put in signatures on websites and other similar things. Cutting to the chase, with the following code

you can produce



Anyway, hope you enjoy it.

Nice stuff. It's Chipmunk all over the place :-).

Using the mousepad on my laptop the paddle doesn't move very fast though, but still fun and I like the graphical style.

Version has been updated a bit, a few bugs have been removed. The download link is the same though. I've currently also got someone rewroking the graphics.

On another note, cheating is pretty fun :P.

Completed more or less, just need to add a couple of bits of polish and some new maps.

I've added some pretty intresting features such as gravity blocks, unlockable achievments (stored persistently on the server to allow gamer-tag esq things in future), built-in editor, developers console (press and hold F, U and N at the same time to open it). Graphics and audio have also been redone.

Anyhow hope you enjoy it.

Old version worked, new version, graphics were white blocks.

Possibly because I changed the default driver to OpenGL, do you have any other problems with GL programs?

@Helios
Yeah, I wasnt sure what the problem was with some programs, as this has happened before. must be open gl as i had to reinstall my operating system once,mustve gotten rid of it.
where can i get the driver?

Cool...

One bug though, I played it and the ball got stuck in the paddle and released ungodly amounts of particles....


but yeah fun

Nice :)

Works under wine too :)

nice game. Enjoyed it.

Same here! :P

I noticed in the credits you put 'Brucy' instead of 'Brucey'.

Oops, sorry stupid typo.

@Yahfree: Yup I know about that, I've fixed it in the next build.
