G Underground - 0.1

This game is a little buggy as it was written in less than 24 hours, feedback is appreciated and I may be shamed into fixing the issues.

flummoxed: I created a png in the gimp. Then I used some python code to write out the string: import zlib, base64 fp = open("Level1.png") img_string = base64.b64encode(zlib.compress(fp.read())) fp.close() Then you can write img_string to a file, then use copy and paste to copy the content into image dictionary. I used vi and cat but it doesn't really matter. This is the line where all the magic happens surface = pygame.image.load(StringIO.StringIO(zlib.decompress(base64.b64decode(data[inaccessible_nodes_file]))), inaccessible_nodes_file) This decompresses the string that is in the dictionary and puts it in a file like object, that the imageg.load function uses to load the image into a surface. I pass the file name in so that pygame knows what file type the compressed data is, and it can apply the appropriate loader. The level graphics is just a black and white image of where the walls are.

How did you use the level graphics without actually having the graphics attached to your game? I noticed the data dictionary that seems to have graphics somehow... could explain exactly what it is you're doing?

That one was pretty cool :) Only things I had problems with were 1. move too slow 2. when you run out of rockets you have to die to replenish them Really nice job for 24h :)
