-<div style="text-align: right;"><i>Silent but active,<br />Small but deadly. <br /></i><br /></div><br /><br /><h3>Updates</h3>Ok so my blog posts have gone down a bit due to me using my fingers for coding. We have started to get some updates to SDL docs so that good. Also some of the tutorials are shaping up. This is what I have been hacking this past week.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NnqjAQEn1Xo/SrmNTm9UkKI/AAAAAAAAAA0/S0XNvXsp9u4/s1600-h/tetris.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NnqjAQEn1Xo/SrmNTm9UkKI/AAAAAAAAAA0/S0XNvXsp9u4/s320/tetris.jpg" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><br />You can grab the <a href="http://github.com/kthakore/TetrisPL">code</a>. Note you will have to install deps yourself. Read the README file. It is not a tutorial yet, because it was hacked together in ~50 hours. But it playable now. During building this I found out that MacOSX (and Snow Leopard) has died again.<br /><br /><h3>Hackfest</h3>So with dngor's help this sunday (27/09/09) we will have a hackfest to fix MacOSX support. Anyone with a MacOSX and wants to help is welcome on <a href="http://widget.mibbit.com/?settings=89f140215d60860684cee2f6a917607f&amp;server=irc.perl.org&amp;channel=%23sdl">#sdl irc.perl.org</a>. We will also try to fix up a lot of docs and the tutorial for a early next week release. Also if we can we will migrate to the new site.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-7382145297295717151?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div></div></div>

+<br />
+So I am preparing a presentation of the new SDL perl for February's Toronto Perl Mongers meeting. What better way to so off SDL perl then with a game? <br />
+<br />
+I started hacking a small point an click game a few days back. I really didn't have a idea in mind, but I did have a goal. I wanted to make a game that shows the basics of a game in SDL. Drawing to screen, game loops, physics and so on. I think I have accomplished it so far. <br />
+<br />
+Take a look at it <a alt="Click the balls to win" href="http://gist.github.com/301949">here</a>. Download that and call it<a alt="Click the balls to win" href="http://gist.github.com/301949">[Shooter.pl]</a>. To win click the balls.<br />
+<br />
+To play this game you need the following:<br />
+<br />
+<ul><li> <b>Only for Linux)</b> sudo apt-get install libsdl-dev libsdl_gfx-dev </li>
+<li> cpan Alien::SDL </li>
+<li> Click Download Source http://github.com/kthakore/SDL_perl/tree/redesign </li>
+<li> Extract it </li>
+<li> perl Build.PL; perl Build; perl Build install </li>
+<li> perl Shooter.pl </li>
+</ul><br />
+I will put up binaries soon-ish.<br />
+<br />
+It is a playable (albeit hard) game right now. All 7 seven levels of it. The purpose of the game is simple click the balls to win. Sounds easy but it isn't. You also get a time in milliseconds after each level. Share your scores on here! I will leave it up to you guys to be honest. <br />
+<br />
+I do have to tidy it up and right documentation for it. This way I will be able to present it clearly to my fellow mongers. I am also still looking for ideas to make this a more polished game. FROGGS recommend I make it a classic NES duck hunt game. I thought since I am using gravity I could do a UFO game out of it where you shoot the UFOs. I am open to your ideas.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3102167581424744259-1585061047069454098?l=yapgh.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>
