My gift had to be "something like old school warcraft". What this means (considering what i had time to implement) is that you control Santa and you must visit three houses, killing orcs along the way. Left-click to select Santa, right click to move, attack and activate the house. (the first house you see is your base, nothing to do there) [FMC Studios] - [Caries Field] - [Ctris] - [Pman] - [Chess for allegroites] |

Even tried to fix the poor elephant who incorrectly attached himself to his sleigh . I really enjoyed it though, hehe. Aaron Bolyard said: Oh well... I'll try SiegeLord's. It looks quite interesting . Heh, it looks interesting but is probably quite boring . Anyway, I'll set up a dedicated server tomorrow so the interested parties might play together.

Here is the SantaHack entry as I blogged it. Talking about the blog, will they become public ? Screen: There are background stars but you only see them on top of the tree. It was originally due to be a timed climbing with some shoot / collect things in 10 levels. In the future release the floors will fall if Santa stays on it too much time. Santa falling in bottom of the screen should have signified a life loose but it's not implemented. For now it's Suuuuuuupaaaaaa Saaaaaantaaaaaa !! Invincible you can call him. Enough babbling, I'm just too angry because I couldn't put more time into it in times ( how many time did I used the word time ? ) Binary (Heavy ! 16.9 MB) I'll do a release which will include scoring, beating vs Christmas balls, sled on top of the tree, higher tree and jpg gfxs because I was so in a hurry that I did just use bitmap format. Shame on me ^^ "Code is like shit - it only smells if it is not yours" |

Aaron Bolyard said: bamccaig, hope you enjoy yours! Now I feel extra bad because I didn't submit a game for BAF (I probably shouldn't have even gotten Aaron's game until everyone else got it, but I uploaded my incomplete entry and I guess the system considered it sufficient). I love my game, Aaron! It's so perfect for me in every way and I love what you did it with it! Such good work! Thank you.
> help help SANTAputer is not amused.
For the heck of it, here is a source and binary pack for my grossly incomplete entry[1]: sgmitt-0.1.1-bin.zip My documentation is probably not really sufficient so I'll add an extra note here: the binaries require the MinGW run-time and Allegro 5. I wanted to bundle them, but I wasn't sure about licensing. For Allegro I guess it would probably be OK, but MinGW is a bigger can of worms. Sounded like I'd have to provide the source code for all of MinGW, which is silly, so it's much easier to just let you install that separately. The Makefile is MinGW specific (and hard-coded), but the code does build and run in Linux; so you can just build it as you would any other Allegro 5 game in Linux. The libal5poly project has a working Linux Makefile included. I have one for sgmitt too, but it's on a branch that I didn't pull down to Windows before bundling up the zips and the diff is like 3 additions and 3 deletions so I'm sure you can figure it out. I guess now that the competition is officially over I'll create a public GitHub repository to push to. You know, so I can complete it[2][3]. I guess I'll wait for the official release for the description to get out (because I'm lazy and already feel like we're breaking the rules bypassing the santahack.net site). References

To run SANTAputer, you need to install love2d 0.8: https://love2d.org/ Then type love santaputer (where santaputer is the directory main.lua resides in). --- |

I am officially a traitor. Really great entry, Aaron.

Yes, I horded them all. Okay, okay, fine. I'll share them. I forgot to finish the downloads page, so I need to do that real quick. Then they'll be public. :-x |

Sorry about the delay, I dropped the ball on that one. I need to look and see if anyone aside from bamccaig uploaded incomplete entries, so they can be displayed as well. Next year, should probably add an option to mark the entry as incomplete, but still allow all the data to be entered. |

SANTAputer was fun! It took me 10 minutes and three crashes though... I had forgotten that A4's END_OF_MAIN() had to be without the semicolon at the end

What harm does the extra semicolon do?

Yeah, I assumed because I didn't check off any of the wishlist requirements that it would flag it as incomplete (or fail form validation), but I digress. A checkbox to say "it is complete" would be good (or a big bold statement saying not to upload incomplete entries ). -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?
