Well that was my first thought, but I don't know what to check for. How do I check for device names to be present?

Oh, yeah, I forgot all about PND bundling. *facepalm* Too much coding makes my brain mush and misses obvious solutions. That makes sense, thanks!

How could I go about programatically checking for the existence of the Pandora's gaming controls, or just to see if my code is running on the Pandora period? I tried using os.uname() but that didn't turn up anything terribly unique. I'd like to for instance remap the default controls...

So I've set up the basic framework for the game. It loads a "level" which right now is just a list of points where the floor will be, then draws a line between the points and lets you scroll the camera around. I've tested blitting two separate 440x280 layers onto a buffer, then scaling that to...

Yeah. I think it should've been a 25-29 age group though, being lumped in with people who are 30 makes me feel old. :( Well, older than I already feel anyway.

I like this idea, but make sure it's all legal. Also, I'd totally be willing to join a coding compo team as a (pixel) artist. ;)

I forgot all about Clonk, this video reminded me of it. Thanks!

Yeah, I meant that when I set up your script (without replacing the built-in) the OP PNDs would still fail to start, so it didn't make a difference. I'm still not sure what caused this really, the only odd thing I did on my Pandora was sudo opkg update sudo opkg install cifs and I highly doubt...

I did this and I'm not sure what was supposed to happen, but it looked like it worked. However, it doesn't fix the problem. EDIT: When I hard reset my Pandora when I have this problem (using Pandora button + power slider) the problem isn't fixed, as opposed to restarting. When I hard reset my...

At least two actually, so the plural fits!

Don't forget, people who don't want this are nazis. Are YOU a nazi?

No no, you don't get it! Think of all the AAA commercial games we would attract! Like uhh... and ummm... and ahhh... oh and how they would all be made for phones so they wouldn't use any of the Pandora's controls besides the touchscreen and then we could beg them to add support for our niche...

I'm not exactly a newbie at programming and I really can't agree that porting software from one language to another is quite so simple. Yes, even with high cohesion and low coupling, proper OO and abstraction, all that jazz. Programming in a language is only 10% syntax, the rest of it is...

what is this i dont even

I like how a lot of people are being like "OMG Y U DONT LIEK ANDROID!?", like that's even the point. Like the point isn't that it'd be stupid as shit to switch to a primary supported OS for which the hardware doesn't have the features to get the most out of it, and which will severely limit the...

There are a few people who don't agree with this view, you know.

Congratulations on a happy end! So why isn't your boss just firing the thieving git? Not sure how much you got from other people, but is there any chance the donations you got can go to something more community oriented somehow? I'd rather see mine go towards something like that than to give...

I don't need Pygame specifically, but I am working on coding a game, in cPython, with a Pygame renderer. My point was that if cPython+Pygame won't work and cPython+Cython+Ogre3D won't work, there's tons of other stuff that won't work, and I somehow doubt that this problem only applies to me and...

Unless I missed a memo, Pygame will not work with Jython, Jython is a Python interpreter sure but that only means it can run pure Python code with completely pure Python libraries and let's face it, that's not the majority of Python software. And you cannot simply swap out Cython and used Jython...

Just so I can make sure where I stand on this as someone who's developing for the Pandora using Python+Pygame at the moment and Cython+Ogre3D in the future, would that even work on Android? Guessing no.
