Ah, Damn that's why i'm always working with a local copy outside the git folder when doing more than just minor changes. may it be a lesson ;)
Okay, I got another conflict (rageface), so I'll add your music changes in my next commit (since Git for Windows is frucked up)

The game and overall level design is intended to give you some freedom and figure out your own way to solve a level (at least once those get more complex).
Anyways thanks for your reply. Feedback and ideas of all kinds are always greatly appreciated :crazy:
I think you misunderstood me. I don't want the game to tell me "where should I jump next". I'm ok with a freeform way of resolving a level.

What I need the game to tell me is "if you click the mouse button right now, the ball will describe this curve". Calculating where the ball will land seems an exercise in chance more than in dexterity, at least in my case. Seeing the curve it would describe beforehand would help a lot.
Aha, understood, like how you get in Puzzle Bobble

you want it to show the path... right?

Drawing it should be pretty easy, the hard bit is calculating the path.

Oh, ok. You mean like Angry Birds where it predicts the flying path. Sorry, I totally missunderstood you :P
Yeah, thought about that too. We'll see...

"extension mp3 not supported"

i assume you dont have the mp3 codecs.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20ST0xLx ... r_embedded -> It'll be like that, but with a much sexier design and icons for scaling (resizing) and moving (with preset keybinds that can be defined in the Editor options)

Fedora, eh? At least I think it was Fedora. They have LÖVE without mpg123 in their repositories because of the patent issues.

You can build your own LÖVE where mpg123 is activated, it's very easy on Linux-based operating systems. Have a look at Building LÖVE.

Very fun, and I'd give the music an A+.
