Tulip by ianmaclarty
The goal of this game is to stay alive ... or grow a Tulip garden.
I've tried to make something easy to learn, but hard to master, taking inspiration from games like Super Hexagon and the Impossible Game.
I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoyed making it!
Note that the Linux build is 64bit only.

Music was really hard. I started working on doing some procedural arranging of loops for variety, but I couldn't get it to produce reliably good sounding music, so I just went with something simple, if repetitive.
Also very nice sound. :)
It took me longer than I am proud of, to understand what these markers on the bottom stand for (the previous attempts) :D
good job
I think I might have fixed your problem (I changed the shell for that script to bash instead of sh), but I'm not sure as I can't reproduce it myself.
Could you try again?
If it still doesn't work, please try running the following command from the tulip directory:
$ ./ltclient data
The patterns are quite challenging too and kept me on the edge of my seat. :P
Failed to select a GLFWFBConfig from the alternatives
Unable to find a usable pixel format

I did some research and that error could happen if you're using the default Windows OpenGL drivers (which have no hardware acceleration). Installing the latest graphic drivers from your GPU manufacturer might help.

Overall, a very competently done minigame. The flower garden aspect of it was a nice touch too.
In fullscreen tulip heads appear higher than they should.
Got 71.31s.
