Stupendous Source Of Fire
Stupendous Source Of Fire - alpha2

Description
Wizards fight each other in different arenas using exploding fireballs, bouncing lightning bolts, target-locking magic missiles and magic swords that deflect spells.
This game is in very beginning stages. It did take me long to reach it's current state, but a good part of the code is already well-structured enough to allow me to evolve the game to the next stages quicker.
Long-term wishlist (I may or may not start working on those for the next release already):
- Bots.
- Decoupling world updates and screen updates.
- Decoupling drawing from absolute positions so that the game may work exactly in the same way in different resolutions.
- Networking.
- Inclusion of powerups.
- A non-hideous UI.
- Complete control customization.
- More project members.
Changes
Included joystick pointers in the main menu and added background images to maps.
Targets for next release:
- Dirty rect updating.
- Map selection menu.
The game still needs 2 joysticks to be played. I'll address that feature soon.

interesting. I'm sorry to see that there have been no updates in over a year and a half... I'm going to see what I can make out of this. |

Network support is planned for some indefinite future. It would be good to have some help there, as I'm so unexperience with the matter.
Anyway, most new features I wanted to include are already present on the incoming release, I just want to do some code cleaning before asking for help on other tasks (listed on the project's description, my long-term wishlist) so I don't have to apologize too much about bad code. =) I've also been thinking that, at some point, it would be cool to branch this game into a single-player action RPG. I'm just waiting for the code to be complete enough and good enough so that it is easily modified and extended in that direction. --------------------------------- By the way, thanks a lot for the feedback and the bug reporting. =) |

This game is really cool! Lots of potential! I'd love to volunteer for it! I personally couldn't play it fully though... nobody around to play with, no joystick (although I really ought to buy one). |

Erm, and
import sys of course. =P |

Andy, I've asked on the pygame list and got some answers. Installed IDLE on my computer and apparently I have the answer to the problem now. =)
The skellington structure seems to work better (including accepting execution by IDLE) if, instead of my previous run_game.py, you just have: ___________ sys.path.insert(0, 'lib') import main main.main() The problem has been fixed on the (unreleased) development version. Thanks a lot for the feedback and I hope your previous problems with the game won't prevent you from trying the horrible UI on the next release. ;) |

Thanks for the feedback. I'm looking into the matter. |

Alright then,
Open fully-updated Windows Vista. Open IDLE. Python version number is 2.5.2. Open run_game.py. Hit F5 (runs the script). Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Andy Hanson\Desktop\ssof-2009-01-31-fixed\ssof_alpha4\run_game.py", line 15, in <module> import main ImportError: No module named main This is certainly a very simple problem! |

Thanks for the feedback, Andy.
Can you paste the error messages that you're getting, along with more information about your system, such as operational system and python version? |

Why can't I run run_game.py? It gives an error for "import main" because the file main.py is in the folder lib. If I copy the data folder into lib and run main.py myself, I get an error saying there's no function main_menu. That's as far as I'm willing to go! |
