After some late night hacking I finally came up with Alias's <a href="http://use.perl.org/%7EAlias/journal/39476">suggestion</a> to have Alien::SDL. All thanks to Alias's generous access to his <a href="http://use.perl.org/%7EAlias/journal/39318">windows farm</a>, I was able to make a easier module to install SDL deps on windows. Future plans are in place to get sources and compile them for other platform.Hopefully a SDL perl release will be out soon to use Alien::SDL now.<br /><br /><br />The above script is in test/testsprite.pl. <br /><br />Until then you can do:<br /><blockquote><br />in cpan<br />cpan><b> install File::Fetch</b><br />cpan> <b>install Archive::Extract</b><br />cpan> <b>install Alien::SDL</b><br /><br />and in cmd <br /><b>pip http://cloud.github.com/downloads/kthakore/SDL_perl/SDL_Perl-v2.2.2.tar.gz</b></blockquote><br /><br />Please post any feedback here.<br /><br />Enjoy,<br /><i>yapgh</i><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-8996898299982319327?l=yapgh.blogspot.com'/></div></div></div>

+<div style="text-align: right;"><i>The frozen wind,</i></div><div style="text-align: right;"><i> made me shiver,</i></div><div style="text-align: right;"><i> with excitement</i>.</div><div style="text-align: right;"></div><br />
+<div style="text-align: left;">There has been some interest in making Frozen Bubble cross platform so I have forked Frozen Bubble v2.0 to my github<a href="http://github.com/kthakore/frozen-bubble/tree/master"> repo</a>. Any contributors are welcome! I will eventually be removing hacks that were needed to make Frozen Bubble work with the old SDL perl. The plan is to make Frozen Bubble cross platform by removing platform specific hacks and dependencies. One of the major switch will be from BSD sockets to SDL_net through SDL perl or XS. The main goal would be to be able to do </div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><blockquote><div style="text-align: left;">cpan install FrozenBubble</div></blockquote><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: left;">To do this the Makefile.PL will need to be rewritten a little bit. Moreover we will need to make test using code from Frozen Bubble so that it can be smoke tested on CPAN. If contributors need more information please contact me.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-4948555691607200165?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>
