struggle,
live,
cease,
die

After a struggling with XS and opaque C structs in the experimental SDL::Rect for a long time. Nothingmuch comes along and solves my problem with this beautiful module XS::Object::Magic. So I will start moving my ugly XS to Magic Land.

SDL Perl Tutorials

This past week I have been working on the sorry state of SDL Perl tutorials. Currently I am working on a Tetris Clone. I am hoping to have it done by next Thrusday for TPM meeting. This tutorial is a mix of several tutorials I found online. Another Lunar Lander tutorial has been submitted by Nelson Ferraz.

If anyone has any really good tutorials for game development (regardless of language) or even request of tutorials. Send it my way I will look into them.

New SDL Perl site

Also we have begin work on a new site. It is still needs work. New Site.

Updates

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.









You can grab the code. 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.

Hackfest

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 #sdl irc.perl.org. 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.
