  • NiallM: C++ (attempting to port to Linux)
  • jovoc: C++ (attempting to port to Linux)
  • zigs: Unity (probably not Python)

If you’re on the Confirmed list, then congradulations: your game will probably not be playable on my desktop! If you have “hit it” next to your name, chances are you’ll pick a platform I won’t be able to use anyway.

If you’re on the Possible list, it could be for several reasons:

  • You haven’t said what C++ compiler you’re using. If you’re using MSVC++, I’ll move you to the Confirmed list.
  • You haven’t said what C# framework you’re using. If you’re using XNA, I’ll also move you up.
  • You haven’t decided what lang / framework you’re using, but you’re tossing over something which probably won’t work here.
  • I could not establish what langs / frameworks you’ll want to use.
  • I could not establish if your lang / framework would actually work here.

If you’re on the Safe list, you’re safe. But if you want a cameo, feel free to ask.

(*) I have it in my lair.

Tyler: LOVE engine
masterhyjinx: Unity
Sophie Houlden: Unity
dock: Unity
Codexus: Unity
Eckolin: Bennu (which has a FreeBSD port :D)
deps: Ruby/Gosu
Praetor57: MSVC++ 2008 (attempting to port to Linux)
NiallM: C++ (attempting to port to Linux)
jovoc: C++ (attempting to port to Linux)
zigs: Unity (probably not Python)

I’m on the List :(

What a weird list. Don’t expect people to pander to your peculiar computer setup, especially considering you include ‘Flash’.

Hehehe.
Praetor57
19. Aug 2010 · 09:07 UTC
haha, I’m both possible and confirmed! I am using MSVC++, but my engine/code should compile in Linux/etc without hassle (my engine was compiling in Linux like a month ago, and I’ll be testing this again later today).
19. Aug 2010 · 09:14 UTC
okeay, call me a simpleton here if you want to, but the way I see it you’re practically walking into a smoking allowed zone and telling everybody who smokes that you don’t like them.

If you have that much free time go buy a copy of Windows or something 😉

For the record, Panda3D can export both Win32 and Linux binaries. (One of those 2 should work under FreeBSD, I think)

well crap im on the “comfermed” list

what will you do down rate my game?
GreaseMonkey
19. Aug 2010 · 19:49 UTC
Dunno, It’s probably going to be more of an ingame, ahem, “honour”.
19. Aug 2010 · 10:28 UTC
I’ll echo the curious criteria comment. My game will be built with MSVC on Windows but gcc on *NIX/BSD. Does that count me in or out?
19. Aug 2010 · 10:44 UTC
Wait, you can run Unity but not Flash?
GreaseMonkey
19. Aug 2010 · 19:51 UTC
Dunno. I might consider shifting it up, as I’ve made this decision based on only one game I’ve played, which runs without issue (other than speed).

Note: those dirtbags at Adobe discontinued 64-bit flash for Linux, and I assume it worked on BSD. Now we’re stuck with either a buggy 32-bit version, the older 64-bit version with the security hole, or one of the replacements – gnash, swfdec, or lightspark.
19. Aug 2010 · 12:35 UTC
I switched from Python/Panda3D to C++/OGRE. Update your list if you like. Not sure where it places me, though.
19. Aug 2010 · 14:32 UTC
What kind of useless OS can’t run flash? Other than that, a single big list of what everybody’s using is kinda cool, I think.
19. Aug 2010 · 15:31 UTC
This is a little unclear … confirmed vs. safe both sound like good things, I don’t know which list I want to be on.
sfernald
19. Aug 2010 · 16:29 UTC
you can move me to confirmed. I am using the FlatRedBall framework which uses XNA underneath and I’m compiling with visual studio 2008, so that will definitely never run on your FreeBSD box.
19. Aug 2010 · 18:37 UTC
Go ahead, that sounds fun. :) You have my permission to use my current gravatar in your game.

19. Aug 2010 · 19:59 UTC
Haha! Once again the SNES proves its superiority!
19. Aug 2010 · 20:12 UTC
Hehe, I’m marked as “not established.”
