My first coding/developing contest

This will be my first entrie in this kind of contest, actually I’ve only developed like 2 complete games so, I hope I could end with something kinda good/fun.

I’ll be using for this contest the processing libraries and also i’ll use some base code to animate gif sprites or something like that if I feel that my game should use some of them. Otherwise i’ll just stick with the base processing library.

I’d like to use my gameboy camera for creating the music (if I can do that in the specified time, of course).

Have a nice day! :)

What a mess!

Well, after a half day thinking what I should do for this entry, I came to the idea of making a full console-input game.

It was not really simple, I started to create a language interpreter and all that kind of stuff, I have never done something like this before.

At least now it recognices all my commands and that stuff. Still some details missing. When I have ended with that I’ll try to create a proper interface and then end with the story of the game.

Also I’ll need to translate my game to english because I’m writing it in spanish, that is also a problem because (as you may can notice), my english is a little bit awful.

Well, let’s see what can I do. 馃槢

No screenshots yet, maybe later when I end my interface.

Good luck :)

PROBLEMS

Yes, i’m having a lot of problems, I can’t package my game :(

I think i’ll upload all the netbeans project but, most people wouldn’t be able to play it I guess.

That’s a little bit sad.

I don’t know how to include my external (two!) files into the final jar.

It always throws an error.

Well, in other words the game is almost done, It wasn’t really pretty anyway :(

A JAR is basically a ZIP file. Have you tried changing the extension to .ZIP (or opening with WinRAR) then placing the files in before renaming it back to .JAR?

You could try FatJar, or OneJar or something. There’s a handy utility in the ninjacave site which allows you to make a single jar

Packaging a Jar for distrubution is quite easy. Not sure how you do it in netbeans but in eclipse all you have todo is right click on the project, export -> Runnable Jar -> Select the Main class -> Allow the librays to be extract into the Jar
