[pulsar spire]

Next time, I'mma just do a better time management

[worn sage]

For your evil monthy report mua hahaha

[karmic scroll]

I like what the cli tool does, putting each zip in its own directory. So if you get tarbombed it drops in the game's directory. Nice. 👍

[sweet mica]

damn i forgot to add the game loosing feature😅

[vocal wasp]

lolz

[sweet mica]

did you try the battle

[vocal wasp]

I haven't

e.e

I will try later

[sweet mica]

oh ok

[pulsar spire]

👀 I see the character is happy asf

[sweet mica]

its in -ve

[pulsar spire]

Sarcasm but okay

[sweet mica]

oh sorry

[sweet mica]

woah this game so awesome

[vocal wasp]

oh no

whoops

i made a typo

in the code

to fix this you need to change the caps to lowercase
constants.py:

from pathlib import Path


SCREEN_TITLE = "I'M THE EVIL TWIN"
SPRITE_SCALING = 1
TILE_SCALING = 6
CHARACTER_SCALING = 1

SPRITE_IMAGE_SIZE = 32
SPRITE_SIZE = int(SPRITE_IMAGE_SIZE * SPRITE_SCALING)

SCREEN_WIDTH = SPRITE_SIZE * 30
SCREEN_HEIGHT = SPRITE_SIZE * 20

ASSETS = Path(__file__).parent.parent / "assets"

my bad lol

should've checked it!

[sweet mica]

okay no worries

[sweet mica]

add it in the entry description

[vocal wasp]

thanks for reminding

[worn sage]

Of course its your bad you are evil lmao

[vocal wasp]

👿

guess that's the consequences of being a supervillain

[sweet mica]

pretty cool game and concept though

[vocal wasp]

thanks :)

:)

the SAVE button is acting weird for me though, it only works when i click the top of the text

[sweet mica]

yea its some issue related to switching views

didn't got the time to squash it

[vocal wasp]

PR time

[sweet mica]

lol

[sweet mica]

https://github.com/Ibrahim2750mi/Blitzkrieg

[vocal wasp]

ty :)

[sweet mica]

I have not typehinted the code due to lack of time...

or added docstrings

[vocal wasp]

i have not typehinted the code due to my laziness

[sweet mica]

lol

[vocal wasp]

will look into it later :)

ehh how to do the battle thingy?

i went back to main menu after "next turn"

[sweet mica]

go to map

and then click on "SAVE and CONTINUE" then click on "Battle"

[vocal wasp]

ohh

[sweet mica]

yea i also have some cheat codes written in the README.md, if the battle is hard/boring

[vocal wasp]

👀

[worn sage]

Dangerous to gib to evil supervillain lmao

[sweet mica]

@valid prairie will you further develop on your game its extremely nice

[sweet mica]

@vocal wasp i stole whole house

i mean like 15%

[vocal wasp]

you're evil

remember you can lockpick some doors 😉

[sweet mica]

yea poop gave you -1000

[worn sage]

The evil virus is spreading lmao

[vocal wasp]

you're the next

[worn sage]

UwU

[worn sage]

Evil physical security measure bypass plan

[vocal wasp]

[still wind]

What were the popular (game) modules used for the PyWeek?

[onyx basin]

I'm going to guess pygame as per usual :P

[pulsar spire]

Oh thanks!

[sweet mica]

arcade

[pulsar spire]

Oh wait, u r the same person from the arcade server

Aaaaaa didn't recognize u

[valid prairie]

Oh wow, thanks!

[valid prairie]

Yeah, I used Pygame and PyOpenGL, but I usually just use Pygame

[still wind]

oh, ty

[neon iron]

Of course i get the exe working perfectly fine after the comp ;-;

[valid prairie]

@rain bane I really like your game! It's great. One note: it doesn't require 3.10. I modified run_game.py to remove the version check and it works fine with 3.9

Also this guy is 100% Indian

+91 is the Indian country phone prefix

[sweet mica]

does it show if someone has judged your entry?

[valid prairie]

Nope

Not till afterwards

[vocal wasp]

eh I'm not judging this time, idk how to judge lol

[pulsar spire]

@valid prairie whats ur game?

[pulsar spire]

!pip pyweek

[proud ruin]

pyweek v0.5.3

CLI for Pyweek.

[vocal wasp]

wow

[valid prairie]

Attack of the Evil Twins

[vocal wasp]

https://pyweek.org/e/my-evil-twin/

there

[rain bane]

Good to know, I used 3.10 and didn’t really bother to check with older versions :p

[valid prairie]

Got it

[pulsar spire]

Damn dude I am damn sure u r gonna win the first prize

[solid star]

@valid prairie I like your minimal Level class. Display lists and only the collision support needed 🙂

Very gamejamy

[valid prairie]

I wasn't trying to make it minimal or anything

[onyx basin]

yeah some really nice work, makes me want to get nitty-gritty with polys too

[neon iron]

Dont even wanna know how unoptimized my stuff is lol

[solid star]

If it runs, it runs 😄

[olive gust]

I'll bet you $100 I've seen worse

[neon iron]

Could prob find worse on w3schools or geeks4geeks tbh lol

[onyx basin]

My code is far from elegant. Especially after thursday I go "whatever, I'll just copy paste this".

[neon iron]

I just randomly referenced a sound file at like line 300 lol

Also pretty sure each frame goes through somewhere around 10 different loops

[limpid heart]

we forgot to mark the source as final, is there a way to fix that? The windows binary got it but not the source zip (which is the more important of the bunch)

[neon iron]

If it’s still posted, its prob fine. Just make sure not to delete it

[valid prairie]

I don't think the CLI download non-final files

[valid prairie]

Reupload the file and mark is as final

[limpid heart]

a little late for that, eh?

should have done that on Sunday, lol

I don't need the file changed, just the final flag, but I do understand I am a tad late

[solid star]

aww and you are using arcade 2,6.11 without all the bugs fixed during pyweek. We did .12 the first day and .13 on Friday

[limpid heart]

lol

Still had fun

I'm not overly concerned, I'm just glad my old team reached out and I had a chance to participate

learned a ton again, really a fun experience

and now I have a gif of a goat shooting a rocket launcher

[solid star]

Yea. The journey is the important part 😉

Update in git repo if you can. Solves cross platform issues with sound, collision and rendering

[limpid heart]

update the requirements.txt to .13?

[solid star]

yup

Game will not start if you have ffmpeg 5 installed in linux for example. We fixed that in pyglet. Also some iGPUs did not handle GPU collision checks. Also some nasty text rendering glitch on some iGPUs randomly.

[limpid heart]

@young harness please update main, this can potentially be bad

main is protected 🤦

[solid star]

It won't affect the vast majority of people I think

[limpid heart]

when did ffmpeg 5 come out?

[solid star]

Released in January ish. Then it popped up in bleeding edge distros a few weeks ago

[limpid heart]

Ah

I think I get an update soon, I'm a bit lame, just Ubuntu LTS

22.04 should be here soon enough

[solid star]

same lol

[limpid heart]

I'm sad I havne't run into the love guru's game yet

I was really looking forward to it

[neon iron]

Is it feasible to rate all games if i no-life the weekend lol

[limpid heart]

I don't see why not

There's 35 entries, giving each an hour would only take 35 hours, and an hour each is excessive

there's 12 days to test still

no need to do it in a weekend, which ends when? It's Monday night for me...

[neon iron]

Alr

I thought there was a hundred smth entries

[solid star]

Signups, yes

[onyx basin]

I’m so gonna come last

[sweet mica]

I already rated 1/3

[smoky gorge]

Can non participants not review the games

[young harness]

I couldn't find the ffmpeg bugfix in the release notes :S

[pulsar spire]

Is anyone willing to review my PyWeek Entry? (https://pyweek.org/e/Hunter2809)

[solid star]

ah right. It's a fix in pyglet. Should maybe have included that in arcade notes

[limpid heart]

Only those with entries can vote. That's how I remember the rules from my last jam at least.

[smoky gorge]

Can non participants just play the games submitted?

[solid star]

Of course. Just download and play

[smoky gorge]

From where is it accessible?

[hot flume]

yup! I know I plan to. I wasn't able to submit a game because of work travel but I'm looking forward to playing them this week

[smoky gorge]

:c better luck next time

[solid star]

https://pyweek.org/33/entries/

[smoky gorge]

Tysm

[solid star]

There is also a command line option #pyweek-game-jam message

[ember sparrow]

Are any of the cat-devs online to help me run their game? I can't see the whole window since it doesn't fit on my laptop screen and it's non-resizeable. Although I was able to see enough to complete the tutorial, I have no idea what to click/press to progress into the actual game. There seems to be some writing at the bottom of the tutorial screen that is chopped off so I can't read it; maybe that's relevant?

CC @jolly estuary & @foggy stratus I guess since you are both online at the moment and part of the cat devs?

[jolly estuary]

Oh boy

What is in your game.py file?

[ember sparrow]

https://paste.pythondiscord.com/cuboquxuho

[jolly estuary]

Oof

Is there a constants.py file?

[ember sparrow]

Yep:

import pyglet

display = pyglet.canvas.Display()
screen = display.get_default_screen()
WIDTH = screen.width
HEIGHT = screen.height

[jolly estuary]

Alrighty, game.py should have this:

import pyglet
from .constants import HEIGHT, WIDTH

bg = pyglet.resource.image("bg.png")
bg.width = WIDTH
bg.height = HEIGHT

To make the full screen work

[jolly estuary]

||also there is currently no way to progress to the next level, other than to stop running the script and change the exec line to the next level||

[ember sparrow]

Ah, ok

[ember sparrow]

Where should I put this? I put it at the start of the file and it didn't seem to change anything. But I can still see like 70% of the screen, so I can probably play the other levels ok now that I know how to change level

[jolly estuary]

Weird, that should be in the game.py file. This is the most recent one: https://paste.pythondiscord.com/ewisotokig

[ember sparrow]

Yeah that doesn't fix it, but dw, the game is playable enough

[neon iron]

Whats the standard screen size? I did 1000x700, idk if thats weird

[limpid heart]

Was that the one with the boxes that jump?

That one scaled very poorly on 4k

[jolly estuary]

Sounds about right

[limpid heart]

I couldn't jump to hit the button on level 2, level 1 I had to repeatedly jump and bump the bottom guy

I gave up at that point, also the level changing was a bit more effort than I'm used to

and installing poetry, which then installed black and flake 8, odd choice to not include a requirements.txt

[stoic heart]

Change the wdith heigth to 1920 x 1080 in constants.py for best experience
|| Because it was made at that resolution 😅 ||

forgot to mention in readme mb

[pulsar spire]

What if my screen's res is 1366x768? 👀

[stoic heart]

then dont else you might experience black screen

[pulsar spire]

Hmm

[karmic scroll]

You need to work on your rickroll technique. 🙂

[pulsar spire]

Whoops

Sorry for the ghost ping MrGumm

[pulsar spire]

https://tenor.com/view/rickroll-rick-astley-pupzyy-never-gonna-give-you-up-meme-gif-20503685

[ember sparrow]

Just finished reviewing all the team games

The only ones I couldn't get working were "Gnorw time" and "SnakeDawg" (which coincidentally appear to be the same game??), so if whoever worked on those sees this and would like to help me get set-up enough to play the game, you're more than welcome to ping me

[neon iron]

Whats the chance anything is gonna be malware? Im assuming about 0

[ember sparrow]

I have a cursory read through the code before running it, and after that just trust the entries. I haven't seen anything fishy so far and don't expect to.

[limpid heart]

At this point it is near zero since no one has reported anything, but you can always run a VM, good thing to learn about anyways

[solid star]

That would be flagged pretty fast.

[remote wave]

Masterpiece, teach me, master

[pulsar spire]

Hahaha

[supple salmon]

is pyjam over?

[amber crater]

i think so

[prisma fox]

yup, we are in a judging period, until april 10th i think

[mellow canopy]

what is pyweek

[nocturne jackal]

#pyweek-faq

[onyx basin]

python.

[graceful knot]

game.py

[solid star]

Still have a few more days to vote on games.

I hope more people will vote this year 🙂

[pulsar spire]

Oh, yea I totally forgot to vote. Rip, school sucks

[hushed hawk]

soo many channels

[pulsar spire]

You do know that u sent the same image 4 times, right?

[novel verge]

Lol

When's the next game jam?

[lusty wasp]

It's semi-annual, so likely in roughly half a year.

[novel verge]

So around September?

[real eagle]

You still have another 6 or so days if I remember correctly

[limpid heart]

not too late

[grave wing]

hello

[novel verge]

hi

[valid prairie]

@hot flume May I have that role?

[neon iron]

What do we get w the role exactly?

[manic goblet]

Hello,
At what time will the Staff be hosting the events?
#pyweek-33-announcements message

[hot flume]

It'll let you stream in the Gameplay channel

[valid prairie]

Pings before a stream I believe

Ah

[neon iron]

I mean ill take it

Prob wont use it tho

[hot flume]

At various times, there's like half a dozen of us that'll pop in and out. You're of course welcome to hangout in that channel whenever while you play/review PyWeek games

[manic goblet]

[neon iron]

Is there some sort of schedule/order?

Or is it just any game

[hot flume]

Not really, we're intending this to be a bit more lowkey. So you can review any game you'd like, we'll be streaming some, and just sort of hangout and have a good time

[neon iron]

Sounds cool 👍

[hot flume]

I know for sure I'll be hosting at least one streaming hangout tomorrow. (I'm also taking suggestions for which game to start with!)

[neon iron]

Not mine lol

@hot flume could i get the role as well?

Pog

Thx

[hot flume]

(If perms are wonky please do let me know)

[valid prairie]

I'd say either my game (I may be biased towards that one lol) or Goob

[hot flume]

haha, I'll start with yours! Yours is the Attack of the Killer Twins, right?

[valid prairie]

Yes

[proud estuary]

PFFFFF

[pulsar spire]

Lol

[onyx basin]

Hi

[grim smelt]

hi

[pulsar spire]

Hi

[limpid heart]

@hot flume could you apply the role to me, I'd definitely like to watch

[neon iron]

Feel like we should have an auto role system for this lol

[pulsar spire]

Yea

[hot flume]

We don't have a good way of automatically associating PyWeek accounts with Discord IDs. We figure since there'll only be a handful of people who want to stream it's fine. Anyone can still join in and watch, the role just allows access to streaming in that channel

[novel verge]

There's a way you could implement a discord integration to the pyweek sites?

[limpid heart]

Anything is possible, but currently nothing is implemented.

[hot flume]

that is a lot of work though and not something we could feasibly put together with how full our plate is

[novel verge]

Fair enough

[solid star]

A lot of work for something a subset of participants would use

[neon iron]

True

[ember sparrow]

How many people here have judged every game?

[pulsar spire]

Not me, thanks to school I'm hardly able to use discord for even an hour

[solid star]

37 games is a lot to go through. I wonder if things would be easier if entries was split into smaller groups?

That will probably introduce other issues of course.

Yea.. it gets really complicated 😅

[limpid heart]

Would be neat if they could be grouped by dependancy

[valid prairie]

Did I miss you playing my game? Oof

@hot flume

Mkay

Which game was that?

[prisma fox]

the logo for mirrormirror looks v nice

[valid prairie]

main.py:382

[foggy stratus]

!pip grip

[proud ruin]

grip v4.6.1

Render local readme files before sending off to GitHub.

[prisma fox]

if anyone wants to unmute let me know

[limpid heart]

The Epic of Goat

[ember sparrow]

@icy plinth btw Kat is playing our game in the gameplay vc

[hot flume]

Mirror Mirror is a very fun and well done puzzle game

[prisma fox]

@ember sparrow link

?

[ember sparrow]

https://pyweek.org/e/mirrormirror/

[foggy stratus]

interesting

[prisma fox]

here we goo

of stars = how well you solved the level?

[ember sparrow]

stars = how many stars you collected on the way to the exit

[prisma fox]

o

[hot flume]

mhm, there are those number of stars you can collect. The evil person can also eat them though, so you have to out-juke them

[prisma fox]

mmMMMMMM

stealing my stars

[jolly estuary]

https://pyweek.org/e/The2WithinYou/

[hot flume]

I need to hop off for the evening, but y'all should def keep hanging out! If you submitted a PyWeek game and want to stream playing others let me or mina know!

[neon iron]

If i join, do i stay muted? Cant talk atm

[prisma fox]

you can mute or unmute, up to you

[neon iron]

Ig ill pop in for a bit

[prisma fox]

HMMM lvl7

is this anything? or just a barrier?

[ember sparrow]

Just a barrier

You can blame Cheeki for designing those devilish levels

[prisma fox]

HMMMMM

i don't see a way of getting those left 2 without getting stuck on that side of the board

i come back

o i can't

lmao

can i disable sound? or no

[ember sparrow]

I don't think so

[ember sparrow]

Simply getting to the exit unlocks the next level, if you want to move on

[prisma fox]

ok

[neon iron]

Is there a no mic chat, or is that just this channel

[jolly estuary]

https://pyweek.org/e/pw33_colab/

[jolly estuary]

I think this is the channel for the PyWeek Game streams

[neon iron]

Alr

I have no clue how people did all this in one week lol

[prisma fox]

lol i'm gonna have to come back to this one

proper stuck

[ember sparrow]

If you want, I can DM a hint

[prisma fox]

oki i'll tell you if can't get it

[ember sparrow]

Ok. I'll stick around for a little and then I'm going to sleep

[neon iron]

Pyweek fell on a bad time for me sadly, no time to get all the games rated

[prisma fox]

lmao

[ember sparrow]

tbf I had covid that week so I had extra time to code instead of travelling everyday

[neon iron]

Id say covid is a reason to not get it done lol

[prisma fox]

ok hint pls

:D

[limpid heart]

Check out this one next https://pyweek.org/e/meme_py123/ it has a surfing goat

[neon iron]

How many pyweeks have you guys participated in?

[jolly estuary]

A total of 2!

I have not made a finished game in either

[neon iron]

Still more than me lol

U guys are wizards lol

How the heck was this made in a week XD

[prisma fox]

YOOOOO

[ember sparrow]

@prisma fox Yes!!

Nice one

[prisma fox]

OYOOOOOO

[ember sparrow]

Ok goodnight y'all

[prisma fox]

gnightt

[neon iron]

[ember sparrow]

There’s 3 more levels btw

[prisma fox]

@ember sparrow @icy plinth that was thoroughly enjoyable

oh what

lmfao

[ember sparrow]

The arrow in the top right

[prisma fox]

ahhahahaa

ok

not pro gamer yet

[neon iron]

If the goat game doesnt win im suing XD

[limpid heart]

❤️

[pulsar spire]

Lmao whom. The game for not winning or pyweek for not giving it the first position?

[neon iron]

Yes

Im still tryna figure out how you guys got so much stuff made in a week. I ended up w a crappy blue screen w some blocks, u guys have full fledged lore and dozens of levels XD

[limpid heart]

far too many hours from the team

I spent near all the time after day 2 learning Blender

and the other guys were just on top of it

[prisma fox]

gn

[neon iron]

Ima head out too, cya

[pulsar spire]

Same, I wasn't even able to think of an idea and made a crappy game xD

[neon iron]

Feel like mine doesnt even belong on the same page as some of these

Gotta start somewhere tho i suppose

[prisma fox]

this is the first game written in python i've ever played

[primal mulch]

is the streaming thing still going on?

why do i feel like im late 😔

[limpid heart]

There was some streaming earlier

[icy plinth]

<3 Thanks for playing!

[vapid wigeon]

Goob is cute and fun
MirrorMirror is amazing but you obviously know that
Two within You is there but I cant judge that one coz I made it :)
Followed is also pretty fun
Quantum Entanglement is damn nicely polished

those are all the puzzle games i came across until now...

[pulsar spire]

@vapid wigeon you are playing all games?

[vapid wigeon]

No no not at all... I mean id love to but there are like 30+ entries

I hv rated 5-6 of them and i dont think i can do any more :/

[vapid wigeon]

I hv completed all of ^ tho...

[vocal wasp]

I've played 2, didn't rate any though heh

[pulsar spire]

I played ||0||

[vocal wasp]

oh we forgor to add up our own games

lol

[pulsar spire]

Hahaha

BTW did u try out my game? Prolly I'mma get some time to play some games tonight cz no school tomorrow

[vocal wasp]

haven't hehe

[pulsar spire]

Oh, haha

[vocal wasp]

might check out yours later :)

[pulsar spire]

(:

[vocal wasp]

or maybe see the livestreams

if anyone plays it

[pulsar spire]

No one's gonna play it most prolly

[vocal wasp]

or maybe you can stream here 👀

[pulsar spire]

Idrk, internet doesn't work properly in my room

[vocal wasp]

sad

[pulsar spire]

It is what it is

[prisma fox]

thanks!

[limpid heart]

Try out our goat game, it's not a puzzle, just a parody that should offer laughs

[vocal wasp]

goats does sound cool ngl

[vapid wigeon]

I checked it out...
Sounds interesting I'll try it if i get the time

[limpid heart]

awesome, it was a labor of love

[pulsar spire]

Can anyone checkout fratic too? 👀

[hot flume]

So on my list of games to check out:

• fratic
• goat game

anyone else want to offer up their game for me to play?

[vocal wasp]

😉dle, I like to see how evil it gets

[neon iron]

I mean maybe mine (super shooter), but dont expect much lol

Just kinda ur average 2d platform shooter

[ember sparrow]

I'mma stream a couple of games in the vc for a bit

[worn sage]

Mua hahaha

[wintry bramble]

Does pyweek happen every month?

[keen spade]

twice a year

[onyx basin]

probably gonna not make top 20

my game was quite trashy

[valid prairie]

No, that would mean there's no break between PyWeeks

[sweet mica]

blitzkrieg (in the battle simulation you need to defeat all enemy units to win)

[icy plinth]

Do I sleep or do I wait until 2am to find out the results?

[onyx basin]

2am

Im staying up

to learn i came last

[icy plinth]

Alternate plan

Set alarm for 2am, nap and go back to sleep after

[limpid heart]

gotta fix discord

when I join teh video on the app it crashes, when I join on web it's web so that's bad

[onyx basin]

I tried this a previous pyweek but I just turned off the alarm and continued sleeping :P

[icy plinth]

It's only a bad bug if you close the game

Speaking of the pyweek website, they probably should fix what happens when you visit http://www.pyweek.org/

[sterile kettle]

oh wow, this game is fancy

[limpid heart]

the panda that almost made it in

[icy plinth]

@onyx basin there's a chrome extension called The Great Suspender that might help the ram issue (also Dark Reader if you want the dark mode)

[sterile kettle]

1 hp

goat agreeing noise

woah the cursor is a goat?

[limpid heart]

yea

[sterile kettle]

looks fancy

is this your game?

[young harness]

Thanks for playing our game!

glad you enjoyed it

[hot flume]

The Epic of Goat, very fun shooter game. Great character models, funny story

If anyone else wants to stream PyWeek games let me know~

[sterile kettle]

for most of pyweek i was in school so i couldn't do much :P

this seems like duodle + absurdle

dordle*

[icy plinth]

I mean it's the only fun one out of the default flavours

[sterile kettle]

if you thought quordle was hard, try https://duotrigordle.com/

[icy plinth]

Time to edit my pin to add that one

[limpid heart]

apparently copy from google images doesn't actually copy

[sterile kettle]

this color isn't horrible

i like it

[limpid heart]

It's like goldenrod without the golden

feels a bit muted for my tastes

definitely not what I recalled it being

but then again pantone isn't the final say

and it looks even worse on my other monitor

[hot flume]

it's definitely evil =P

[sterile kettle]

true

i'm a fan of muted colors tbh

maybe it's cause i like using them on graphics and what not

[onyx basin]

\".*\

[foggy stratus]

I SOLVED IT

wait no

theres 32??

I solved the first 4

[hot flume]

Really enjoyed it! A lot of potential and pretty impressive for 1 week's worth of work

@vocal wasp I was trying your game and couldn't launch it with python -m src because of imports, so used python . inside of src. Wasn't an issue, and I am not sure if others have reported something similar - just wanted to let you know for the future.

PyWeek 33 - Feedback

[vocal wasp]

which entry in particular? thanks for reporting

[hot flume]

I would feel bad about the double ping for winners... but y'all also just won so =P

[vocal wasp]

evil pings

[real eagle]

Great job everyone!

[cobalt ibex]

Sorry I never got back to you, the entry where you are a cube that steals a golden poo 😅

It also crashed a few times from within Arcade but I am not sure if that's your fault so I haven't mentioned it.

[vocal wasp]

ohh that one, thanks

I might bug fix them one day

[keen spade]

congratulations to all the winners!!!!

[chrome thicket]

good job guys!

[sweet mica]

is the pyweek site down?

[solid star]

It seems to be down again, yes

[woeful tree]

It is back up now

[icy plinth]

This was a pleasant double ping to wake up to :)

[icy plinth]

If anyone ever uses my level editor for mirror mirror and ends up seeing this, I kinda wanna compile a bunch of player-made levels so I'm down to receive some dms

[vocal wasp]

there's a level editor 👀

might play sometime, busy for a while

[onyx basin]

aaw I lost because of 2 brutal reviews :(

those 1s really do a lot of damage

[vocal wasp]

i wish i judged hehe

[stoic heart]

thanks

[onyx basin]

congrats cosmologicon

I still have no idea how you got pygame to draw mirrors like that

[torpid oriole]

hey guys if i wanted to start doing python game jam what should i practice

should i start by picking up pygame and building small games?

[onyx basin]

yes

[woeful tree]

Well done, everybody!

[pulsar spire]

Sadly my game wasn't judged by many people
But, on the bright side, the jam was damn fun!

[onyx basin]

what was your game?

[sweet mica]

i also just got 7 reviews

[pulsar spire]

Fratic

https://pyweek.org/e/Hunter2809/ratings/

Wait, I just realized this page also existed 😐

Who's speedlimit35 tho

[onyx basin]

yeah and aleksan gave you a very similar review as me

"Not mine." and then gives the lowest rating for fun

[pulsar spire]

Hm i never knew that page existed tbh
Well, this is my first time, so prolly it will take time for me to get hang of things haha
But ngl, it was fun

[onyx basin]

yeah and pretty scary at times :P

[pulsar spire]

That was the motive =D

And yea, the graphics and sound effects were all self made, courtesy of my friends

[ember sparrow]

Yeah their reviews were a little odd

[ember sparrow]

I think it’s @warm marsh

[pulsar spire]

I'm totally confused and idk who is whom and what ya'll mean

Haha well my motive was to make it a scary themed game, and seems like I partially succeeded

[onyx basin]

definitely

[pulsar spire]

On the bright side tho, I learnt damn many new things about game making and arcade, specifically. Was my first time using it

[sweet mica]

yea the music gave some scary vibes

[limpid heart]

I'm just confused what someone needs to do to get more than average production, so many 3's

Because custom assets is not it

That's the most disheartening part to me, at least I learned a ton, but impressed none 😦

[ember sparrow]

I think most reviewers cared more about the end result rather than whether or not the assets were custom. Maybe if you had more explicitly pushed that customness aspect as a selling point it would have appeared more impressive?

The production rating comes from providing a smooth user experience as a whole, and looking through some of the reviews for your game it looks like there were minor issues with the controls, user navigation, color theme and storytelling. I think those dragged down the production rating a bit

[pulsar spire]

Agreed

[limpid heart]

the big lesson learned was really we needed to better test it, watching people play in the gameplay channel I saw bugs no one else encountered

quite a few unique ones, the one kat had I can't even begin to debug

I assume it's a library bug more than anything, the fullscreen windowed default (ugh, I said windowed) only loaded on half her screen

But 'as expected' just stings is all, will definitely not be putting in half the effort into the art and significantly more into the UX next time

[neon iron]

Thanks a ton for everyone who played my game/left a review! All the comments were about things i wanted to change, but sadly ran out of time to fix. Hopefully next time i can iron out those issues before the end lol. Also great job to everyone else who made a game!

[solid star]

Poke if you need help debugging any arcade stuff.. and definitely create an issue if you stumvle over something

[solid star]

Was this MacOS by any chance?

[limpid heart]

I don't think she was on mac, I'm pretty sure it was Windows

[hot flume]

Just a reminder that we have a feedback thread! #962510265184845834

[smoky dune]

hi, uhh sorry I missed that for a long time and idk if anyone from my team(s) responded to it
so, the thing is I tested the game on windows and minutely on linux with some tests failing which I assumed due to errors within my vm setup
many tried to run it on mac including one of my friends but it appears it doesn't work there

also if anyone is curious to why there are two teams for a single game, it's basically a last minute team split
"snakedawg" being the incomplete and unplayable version

[lusty wasp]

Congrats to everyone who participated! And to the winners especially 🙂

[regal scroll]

yea

[hoary pivot]

reeeeee

[lyric cedar]

When will be the next py week?

[serene widget]

Has anyone good idea for my university pygame Project

?

[brittle scroll]

Make a ant game, and make it go collect food

bring it back to the colony

if you meet any predators escape

or die

and restart game

[serene widget]

I'll think of it😄

[torpid oriole]

lmao how is this the first thing that comes to mind

[crude bobcat]

Hello Guys

[cobalt ibex]

👋

[unique coyote]

Lol i know im its too much for pygame but try mimicking capture the flag if u know percy jackson series or if u don't u can browse it

[onyx basin]

hello @cobalt ibex

[cobalt ibex]

Hi!

[onyx basin]

hello

are you interested in python,kotlin,go,flutter,html ??

ping or dm me

[granite stone]

Hey guys I am interested in learning python

Can anyone be my mentor for that

[unique glade]

Wrong channel, you could ask in #python-discussion

[unique glade]

Also wrong channel, that goes in off-topic

[drifting cipher]

XGBoost classifier and other commonly used libraries like LightGBM or Scikit-Learn algorithms can be applied.

[sly crescent]

any good python games someone can reccomend for inspiration?

[viral raft]

Chess

[raw raven]

Tower Defense

[sly crescent]

good idea.

[rapid flower]

how about doodle jump , being a motion graphical game ??

[solemn dust]

game dev is so hard

[half crow]

approved

[scarlet phoenix]

Why is the pyweek-announcements channel archived?

[zinc flax]

.ץ

[pulsar spire]

Because PyWeek 2022 1 is over

[scarlet phoenix]

When is the next PyWeek?

[unique glade]

I believe in the winter sometime, doesn't look like the dates have been determined yet. @hot flume do you know when the next PyWeek is by any chance?

[onyx basin]

gn

[rustic rune]

Did this event ended?

[dusty mist]

yes, in March

[rustic rune]

O

Iam an idoit

[dusty mist]

the next game jam will be in the second half of this year

[rustic rune]

On June?

[dusty mist]

no

[rustic rune]

Then when?

[dusty mist]

you can assume it will be sometime in September

based on previous year's dates

[north cairn]

what is gamejam?

making a game of a topic? with any module?

[unique glade]

Yes. Specifically for PyWeek, there is a theme chosen by the community and you vote for the best one on the PyWeek website. And yes the game itself can be written with any module such as pygame and the likes.

Whoops replied to the wrong message, meant to reply to the second one

[worthy bronze]

When is the next gamejam?

[prisma fox]

it will be in september

if you run !subscribe in #bot-commands you can hit a button to get the pyweek announcement role to stay tuned more easily

[echo schooner]

what does a gamejam do?

[echo schooner]

I see, the role includes its own text and it can be triggered to direct the user to that text

[brave hollow]

when is the next gamejam

[prisma fox]

next pyweek game jam will be in september

[unique glade]

Maybe a good idea to update the channel description to reflect that?

[snow lava]

be named PyWeek
be bi-annual
insert existential crisis

[real eagle]

it's a week long competition

[snow lava]

yep - it's a jk

[grave storm]

Same. It confused me, too initially.

[cold blade]

when next game jam

[unique glade]

@cold blade ^^^

[cold blade]

alr

[onyx basin]

the next one will be my first game jam!

[hasty grove]

when is the next jam gam

[brisk cloak]

In the September!!!

Look up!!! 😠

Sorry, but answer for this question was sent 3 times or more 😦

[hasty grove]

@brisk cloak nice thanks

[brisk cloak]

No problem )

[ember sparrow]

Pretty much. There's a set theme voted on in the week before, and only pure Python is allowed for sections of the code handling "game logic". There's a handful of other minor rules about thing like assets etc which you can read on the pyweek website

[lucid inlet]
