Description

Insectoid! is my first attepmt to create a game in python 2.5, using pygame. That means code is messy, bad structured, not optimalized and I strongly discourage from using it to learn something about programming. The game is not finished yet, but I am driven by recognition, so if you like the game, sent me a mail and the chance for new version will be greater! Also all kinds of comments are welcomed Controls: arrow keys for moving, left ctrl or right ctrl for fire.

Thank you for your comment! :) It was coded in Python 2.5, so I presume the problem will be there. I do not know, what will work in 2.4 and what not, becouse I just know only 2.5. No need to apologize, I am aware of the horrible code, as i wrote in the description. I'll try to improve it in the next project (I hope it will be any ;) )

There were a few problems on my machine: Traceback (most recent call last): File "insectoid.py", line 35, in ? from explosions import * File "explosions.py", line 17 class Effect(): ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax () cannot be there in Python 2.4. Changing all class X(): to class X:, text = self.font2.render(menuapp[1], 0, (5, 5, 210)) pygame.error: SDL_ttf render failed Without anti-aliasing, my text renders fail for some reason. I changed them all to 1. self.effect_field.add(Effect(10,10)) TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 4 arguments (3 given) I can't explain this. I just passed in 20 for the fourth argument. But shooting was broken. The graphics looks promising, but the code is horrible. Sorry.
