Same as the same game

[Peter Hickman]

Now that I am getting up to speed with Love (god how that makes me cringe - couldn't we rename it something more manly? Hate perhaps?) I have finally re-implemented the 'Same game' for myself. So that I can have a nice version for OS X.

Here it is then. My best attempt so far. Spent the day wondering around the house and hitting things with a toothbrush to create sound effects. Except for the won.ogg file which I downloaded.

I will probably slow down a little bit as I get to grips with some animation.

This is so much fun!

Good job!
What about saving high-scores? Might be fun?

BTW, I've seen this a lot recently: I know on mac you only use .love as folder, but PLEASE package games as normal .love files, it saves the rest of us a lot of work.

It should be doing that already. I've just checked on my OS X system and the high score is being saved to ~/.love/same.love/highscore.txt. Depends on your system. But it will only save when you have completed a level (cleared it or otherwise), not if you quit a game.

If it's not working then I will have to get hold of my sons PC and test it there, or are you using Linux?

Ok, will get onto it.

It is saving
I wasn't thinking that clearly obviously, no surprise it doesn't save when you don't finish your game. Well, that leaves nothing else, I admit: It's great.

Ooh, well done! I remember playing this game, it's pretty fun.

Also, I looked through the entire source code and learned a lot! Thanks!
