I've added some projects to the depot recently, I think I've got about 4 queued up now. What are the chances of moving these through the review process? -- |

We could have a page on the wiki where we put links to GitHub pages of completed games or something like that. -- |

Does that mean that the depot is broken and that the Supreme Dictator left us alone ? "Code is like shit - it only smells if it is not yours" |

+1 Mark Oates. Fucking greatest response ever. I think that the review is manual, perhaps ML himself, and I think he's busy trying to survive a nightmarish job (or else living the high life). Honestly, I have no idea what he's doing, but he seems to have lost either interest or time for A.cc. To be fair, I think he mentioned that he has an infant! Probably means he has two cry babies to deal with. Assuming that wasn't trolling, that would probably take a lot of time. -- 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?

I want know why your 4 projects are in queue. I want to understand this. |

This website had a feature where you could add your projects, called the "Depot": https://www.allegro.cc/depot/ It has not worked for several (5+?) years now though. He thought it still works and so queued up 4 of his projects and now was wondering why they did not show up. -- |

Hmm, I didn't know it was that bad, that's disappointing. We could put some alternative up, using the wiki or something like that... but is there really any demand for it left? -- |

Feel free to step forward as a reviewer. The Depot takes time and effort. Can't approve just any old game.

A regular old page on the wiki would be too easy to fill with random junk unfortunately. And people would need to spend real time to go through games. preferably multiple people so its more of a group effort instead of burning people out. Also good to have more than one people review the same game to get differing opinions. Like peer-review. -- |

I think a centralized location would be nice for all of our games I bought the domain allegroplanet.com with an intention to eventually add some simple features that we could all use. I'd like to make it an open-source app, and initial features might be a community depo, a centralized table for allegro binaries, and a hack-a-thon service. That's the idea anyway. -- |

Cool There's a major caveat for this project that you might not like - it'll be a Rails 5.0 app and server-side code will need to be done using Ruby. Ruby as a language is easy to use, but Rails has a bit of a learning curve. I would really like to authenticate users via allegro.cc. That would be ideal. In addition to the things I mentioned, some stretch goals are:
Basically it would kinda be like "Allegro as a service". ___ The app is live at: https://sheltered-atoll-29447.herokuapp.com/ -- |

If it's going to be "allegro as a service", can I request:
I'll look at the code. RoR is OK, I'm not an expert but I can learn. edit: sent my first pull request. It's just a small one but you gotta start somewhere. By the way, did you see my PM? -- |

Ah, Ruby... I can't say I'm too familiar with it. I'm a PHP/MySQL guy, though I suppose I could give Ruby a try.

Reminds me a chat with the guy behind Factorio I had in November last year during Game Developers Session. He had a similar experience when trying to get Factorio into the Depot.
