December 25, 2004 [ANN] Auf sie mit Gebrüll! | ||||

As I promised, I gathered with two friends last weekend and made a game for the 72 hour game development competition (see http://www.finalredemption.com/72hourgdc/board/ ). This game is called "Auf sie mit Gebrüll!", a puzzle game with the objective of getting a character with lemming-like behavior from start to exit. To accomplish this, you need to place objects (walls, jump markers...) in the level. I think that, considering we only spent about 54 hours making it, the game came out quite good. Technologies used are: derelictSDL http://www.dsource.org/projects/derelict derelictSDLImage derelictSDLMixer Sofud 0.2 http://sofu.sourceforge.net/ You can download the game (about 2.5 MB) at http://randomz.heim.at/aufsie/aufsie11.zip - comes with source code and a Windows binary. The code should theoretically be portable, and compiling it for linux is pretty much the next thing on my list. Enjoy, Sebastian |

Posted in reply to Sebastian Beschke | It's a fun little game :) There's some slowdown on the instructions screen; I would assume it's because you're drawing all those presumably alphablended letters to the screen. The game itself runs snappily however, and it's pretty addictive. I love lemmings and this is a nice twist ;) A question about the name, though.. I'm in highschool German, and while I can sort of literally translate it (on her/it/them[/formal you?] with mooing/roaring), it really doesn't make sense. What does it mean? |

"Auf sie mit Gebrüll!" (German)
It's kind of a battle call/cry.
Maybe Brits would say: "Slag them off!"
Happy New Year,
Thomas

Your translation is correct.
Imagine: You are an English soilder at the border to Scotland. Now a crowd of roaring Scots
aproaches....
It's also used when you tackle seemingly unmounteable tasks.

That's bad, it wasn't supposed to make sense :D
A few things on my fix-it list are better collision detection, fixing that slowdown on the startup screen (I guess it's something to do with the alpha-blended mouse cursor) and building it on linux, which should be theoretically possible.
