Hey guys, I made a game for the Adventure Time Game Jam this weekend, you can find it here-
http://www.adventuretimegamejam.com/submissions/85
To make this game, I created a bit of a "mini-game engine" to create new mini-games with a small table of information. Feel free to unzip and take a look at how it operates. It's not the cleanest code (and not commented due to jam time), but I might create a new framework out if later.
Enjoy!

You only have there an assembled exe which is nasty for Linux or OSX users like me. I had to go to XP only for made a love from .exe. I didn't posted it here because I don't know if you mind.
About the game all seems graphically cool but is really a weird game. I don't even know if I'm playing it right. Levels change so quickly and I don't understand if I died or succeed. Things just keep changing on and on...

Arts are damn cool. Nothing to say about that.
Love the retro-style, too.
But I don't understand the gameplay...I'm just typing my arrows, until I get the screen "Lose"...
Any chance to have a *.love file, so that everybody can see the sources ?
And well, I don't like the resolution. Just start with the usual 800x600, and maybe add some scaling or a fullscreen option for thosewho need it...

Quite addictive game
. Nice graphics.
LOVE extract command for Linux users:
Code: Select all
tail -c +2990080 AdventureTime.exe > AdventureTime.love

What's the tail's
-c option for, linuxers ?
Pretty sure the same result can be achieved on Windows with PowerShell's Get-Content command. Dunno how though.
Code: Select all
PS Path_to_exe (???)| set-content Path_to_love
Any idea ?

I use 7zip on Windows and I can obtain the content of the .love (but not the .love itself) by trying to extract the bundled .exe

-c N ... output the last N bytes
-c +N ... output bytes starting with the Nth (I used N = size of LOVE exe file)

Though
it is annoying to have to do this manually this works on OS X too for those wondering.
Well, it lasted about 10 seconds into the gameplay

What I did see though was fun. I'll give it another go but if it crashes I'll wait for a fix

EDIT: Tried a few 'gauntlets'. The controls seem kind of unresponsive. I'm not sure if it's a framerate issue or not, but it definitely seemed difficult to control. Other than that, I like the WarioWare style gameplay. It would be nice to see the intro descriptions for more than a millisecond!
EDIT2: You can also rename the exe to .love and it runs.

Okay thanks. So, the same result can be achieved through lua. I'm using lua's native IO facilities, so don't try to run it with Love, install lua instead.
Code: Select all
-- Different x86 love.exe's sizes
local love080 = 2990080
local love072 = 2544128 --2547712
local love071 = 2548736
local love070 = 2554880
local love062 = 2571264
local love050 = 1531904
local exe_name = 'any_game.exe'
local file = io.open(exe_name,'rb')
print('seeking to position',file:seek("set",love080)) -- if packaged with Love080
local love_data = file:read('*a')
file:close()
local love_name = exe_name:gsub('(%.exe)$','.love')
local love_file = io.open(love_name,'wb')
love_file:write(love_data)
love_file:close()
print(('File %s written!'):format(love_name))

I do exactly the same when people forget to post a source!
@Lafolie You know I'm in OSX too right? I hadn't errors but I actually felt I had no control playing it... Game starts and ends too fast. Was/is weird.
