Frogatto 1.0 Released


You’ll need OpenGL, GLEW, SDL (plus SDL_ttf, SDL_mixer, and SDL_image). LibPNG is needed for making a ‘precompiled’ set of images to use on computers (it saves video-ram and makes the game run faster). Finally, we use two parts of Boost: “regex”, and “system”.

The code is open source, so a port should be at least possible. The exact amount of work depends on how exactly they use OpenGL. HW wise it seems runnable. I tried to take a look at the source, but the svn repository timed out on me.

To answer your actual question: AFAIK no one is working on a port.
 
A user in the german boards already posted a little about it, including a link to the frogatto boards where he asked about permission for the port (data files are non free!). I replied in there since I gave compiling frogatto with the crosscompiler a short test (including some Makefile changes). Mentioned some comments in there and yeah, it looks like plain recompile won't work.

Hi,

I stumbled upon this game today on happypenguin.org, compiled it on my x86_64 box, and it's great fun ! Nice old-school gameplay, catchy tunes, very good graphics, etc...

Let's hope we can have this one ported over to the Pandora :)

Bye, Magic Sam
 
People have suggested ports to various platforms (like PSP, DS, etc). We ourselves are completely incapable of doing this – we know nothing about programming for these, we don’t own these devices ourselves, and we can’t afford to pay someone else to do it. If you can do a port, we’d be happy to do business with you (including potential freeware releases, such as for the Pandora/GP2x). But asking our current team to do it is useless.

Your avatar looks more like an icecream sundae. Very misleading that.
