Release hocoslamfy (Flappy bird clone)

[gillmaus]

Hi!

I found this on the gcw zero and liked it more than flappy bird. So I decided to recompile it and tweak the screen resolution to fit on the pandora:

Have a lot of fun!

Thanks.  We already have Ekianjo's python port, but I'll have to see how your version stands up.

I note that his already supports C4A.  Do you think you could add that to your port?

Hi. This one plays a bit different from flappy bird.
Do you mind to give me howto/wiki for c4a, so i can see what i can do?

Thanks for porting this.

What about using one of the gaming buttons instead of space?

My best score so far: 116.

Build this and check its --help text.  See this to see what c4a itself /is/

Also, here for the thread about the fusilli client (that you should use) http://boards.openpandora.org/topic/16228-fusilli-client-alternative-c4a-client/
And here fr the C4A in general: http://boards.openpandora.org/topic/17058-c4a-now-with-highest-best-and-lowest-best-support-feel-free-to-test-and-devs-need-to-clarify-their-configs-for-me/

Basicaly, you create a ".conf" file for your game and you send it to skeezix (with the ID of the game so it's registered).
You create a marquee (not mandatory but better) and you send it to Milkshake.

In you game, if you want to be lazy, each time you have a score, you cache it using a command like
fusilli push ID_OF_GAME SCORE 0 --cache

(so nothing is sent, just in cache).

At the game exit, in the runscript for example, you add a
fusilli emptycache

To send everything (well, just the best score per game) and it should be ok...

Button issue: Since now I didnt touch the source/code. But this sounds not to be a lot of work.

C4A, see if I get this straight:
Basicly I just need to submit every accomplished score to a fusilli client command/system call.
But I need to compile and include the fusilli client in the hocoslamfy package.
I understand to first submit a .conf to User skeezix and create an image("marquee") to User Milkshake.
Would'nt that to be 2 games (one with and one without C4A) in my package? Or an extra package?

Almost. The fusilli client is alread in the firmware and accessible in normal PATH. Nothing to compile (the link was more for the readme).

Also, no need to do 2 games. The fusilli wil handle the case of no c4a profile by itself.

How is a c4a profile detected an set?

How is a c4a profile detected an set?

To create a profile, the easiest now is to use Ziz's Sparrow C4A Manager.
To detect a profile, I don't do that. It's doable, but I don't even try too (ask Ziz or skeezix or look in the source of fusilli to see how it does).

Hi. I recently uploaded a new version with your desired changes. Testing would be nice (and fun).

 

[matti1234]

Works great. Thanks.

 

[levi]

Just given this a go. I think it's safe to say I'm not very good at this style of game:

High score: 6.

Nicely put together though.  Very slick.

Fun fact: C4A is also on the GCW available! It works exactly the same. The fusilli client does also exist for Linux and Windows. Check out the help (or the source code) for options. Here you find all the builds: https://github.com/theZiz/fusilli-client/tree/master/build

Hi all

@ gillmaus: thanks for porting that great game to the Pandora !

+ great parallax scrolling
+ good overall presentation
+ cutest bee ever :wub:
+ nice chiptune
+ addictive gameplay

- the lower part of the green bamboo shoots is sometimes hard to see against the green background...
- the font used for the numbers between the shoots could use some work, and is prone to ghosting...

Cheers, Magic Sam
