dmj726thunderfest: what're you making?08:10
*** rsalveti_ has joined #maemo-devel08:12
thunderfestwell lots of stuff08:12
thunderfestcurrently my fiance and I are making a cute little game called "space bunny roundup"08:14
thunderfestyou have to  lasso little bunnies of the same color that  hop around and make space noises08:15
dmj726for the n900 by chance?08:16
thunderfestyes08:16
dmj726cool08:16
dmj726what's the engine you're working on like?08:16
thunderfestfairly basic08:16
thunderfestuses sdl for window managment and basic image loading08:17
thunderfeston top of that it has its own event simple system a nice state machine and gamestate class and sprite systems08:18
dmj726Hmm...I'm considering making a Sita Sings the Blues game and haven't decided if I want to roll my own or build on someone elses base.08:19
thunderfestSita Sings the Blues?08:20
dmj726http://sitasingstheblues.com/08:20
dmj726http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/sita_sings_the_blues/08:21
dmj726yeah I know it would be a game based on a movie08:21
thunderfestneat08:22
thunderfestlooks like there is alot of nice free art there for you to work with08:22
dmj726Yep.  She even open sourced her movie.08:22
thunderfestyeah I see that08:22
thunderfestwell I only have a n810 to test on right now08:23
thunderfestbut I just bought a n900 it comes tomorrow I'm quite excited08:24
dmj726Hmm...I only have an n900, but a friend has an n80008:24
dmj726n900 is sweet08:24
thunderfestyeah looks that way08:24
dmj726A friend of mine just bought one, something about his itouch's lack of multitasking.08:24
thunderfestwell maybe by the end of june I'll release a simple 2d engine08:26
thunderfestwhat languages do you usually code in?08:26
thunderfestthis is all c++08:26
dmj726I'm flexible.08:27
dmj726Usually a c/C++ language or a scripting one like python.08:27
thunderfestsweet08:27
thunderfestI don't do too much scripting08:28
dmj726I like to use python whenever I don't really need a lower level language.08:29
thunderfestif I really need to throw something together like that day I'l use flash/actionscript but mostly I try to stick to c/c++08:29
dmj726I'm not a huge fan of flash, since I don't have the tools and a lot of others don't either.08:30
dmj726python I can throw together on my phone.08:30
thunderfestyeah08:30
dmj726You have flash though?08:31
thunderfestwell stolen08:31
dmj726ah08:31
dmj726'tis hard for many of us to afford08:31
thunderfestyeah I know08:32
*** rsalveti_ has quit IRC08:32
thunderfestits pretty outrageous08:32
thunderfestflash is only ok08:32
dmj726And I'd have to rebook all the time to use it.08:33
dmj726*reboot08:33
thunderfestits pretty good for (better than python IHO) rapid prototyping a game idea08:33
dmj726probably08:34
thunderfestI do hate rebooting just to use it08:34
dmj726Adobe would make a killing if they ported CS to Linux.08:34
thunderfestI wouldn't ever use it for anything that need production level quality08:34
dmj726Their video editor is very good from when I used it for a summer job.08:35
thunderfestidk what makes you say so08:35
dmj726...better than any of the editors on linux.08:35
thunderfestah I mean...I'm not sure adobe would really make a killing from porting cs to linux08:36
thunderfestmost linux user's expect their software to be free and I doubt many would buy it08:37
dmj726mmm...That's true for a good percentage, but there are a lot that pick the best tool for the job.08:38
dmj726I'd consider getting it if it weren't going to tie me to windows.08:38
thunderfestplus most of the linux graphics folks who would really benefit from CS are already gimp and inkscape fan boys and it would be hard to convince them to switch even though CS is still better08:39
dmj726premiere08:40
thunderfestdoes adobe even let you buy just one app nowadays?08:40
thunderfestI thought you had to pick one of the suites they offer?08:41
dmj726I know at least some are separate08:41
thunderfestwell good luck to you, I'll be around.08:46
