  • Examples of 2D side-scrollers that achieve open non-linear feel?

    - by Milosz Falinski
    I'm working on a 2.5D platformer prototype that aims for an open feel while maintaining familiar core mechanics. Now, there's some obvious challenges with creating a non constricted feel in a spatially constricted environment. What I'm interested in, is examples of how game designers deal with the "here's a level, beat the bad guys/puzzles to get to the next level" design that seems so natural to most platformers (eg. Mario/Braid/Pid/Meat Boy to name a few). Some ideas for achieving openness I've come across include: One obvious successful example is Terraria, which achieves openness simply through complexity and flexibility of the game-system Another example that comes to mind is Cave Story. Game is non-linear, offers multiple choices and side-stories Mario, Rayman and some other 'classics' with a top-down level selection. I actually really dislike this as it never did anything for me emotionally and just seems like a bit of a lazy way to do things. Note: I've not actually had much experience with most of the 'classical' console platformers, apart from the obvious Marios/Zeldas/Metroids, since I've grown up on adventure games. By that I mean, it's entirely possible that I simply missed some games that solve the problem really well and are by some considered obvious 'classics'.

  • How to use GD binding in Haskell?

    - by milosz
    I've installed the GD package (http://hackage.haskell.org/package/gd-3000.4.0) using cabal. When I try to compile the program which uses GD I receive an error: [mp262554@students:~/jpp/haskell]$ ghc gd.hs compilation IS NOT required gd.o: In function `sV8_info': (.text+0x1bf): undefined reference to `gdzm3000zi4zi0_GraphicsziGD_saveJpegFile_closure' gd.o: In function `sUY_info': (.text+0x3be): undefined reference to `gdzm3000zi4zi0_GraphicsziGD_drawLine_closure' gd.o: In function `sUI_info': (.text+0x51a): undefined reference to `gdzm3000zi4zi0_GraphicsziGD_newImage_closure' gd.o: In function `sUI_info': (.text+0x6a5): undefined reference to `__stginit_gdzm3000zi4zi0_GraphicsziGD_' gd.o: In function `sVc_srt': (.data+0x34): undefined reference to `gdzm3000zi4zi0_GraphicsziGD_drawLine_closure' gd.o: In function `sVc_srt': (.data+0x38): undefined reference to `gdzm3000zi4zi0_GraphicsziGD_saveJpegFile_closure' gd.o: In function `sUI_srt': (.data+0x4c): undefined reference to `gdzm3000zi4zi0_GraphicsziGD_newImage_closure' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

  • Trouble with Berkeley DB JE Base API Secondary Databases and Sequences

    - by milosz
    I have a class Document which consists of Id (int) and Url (String). I would like to have a primary index on Id and secondary index on Url. I would also like to have a sequence for Id auto-incrementation. So I create a SecondaryDatabase and then I create a Sequence. During initialisation of the Sequence I get an exception: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException at com.sleepycat.util.UtfOps.getCharLength(UtfOps.java:137) at com.sleepycat.util.UtfOps.bytesToString(UtfOps.java:259) at com.sleepycat.bind.tuple.TupleInput.readString(TupleInput.java:152) at pl.edu.mimuw.zbd.berkeley.zadanie.rozwiazanie.MyDocumentBiding.entryToObject(MyDocumentBiding.java:12) at pl.edu.mimuw.zbd.berkeley.zadanie.rozwiazanie.MyDocumentBiding.entryToObject(MyDocumentBiding.java:1) at com.sleepycat.bind.tuple.TupleBinding.entryToObject(TupleBinding.java:76) at pl.edu.mimuw.zbd.berkeley.zadanie.rozwiazanie.UrlKeyCreator.createSecondaryKey(UrlKeyCreator.java:20) at com.sleepycat.je.SecondaryDatabase.updateSecondary(SecondaryDatabase.java:835) at com.sleepycat.je.SecondaryTrigger.databaseUpdated(SecondaryTrigger.java:42) at com.sleepycat.je.Database.notifyTriggers(Database.java:2004) at com.sleepycat.je.Cursor.putNotify(Cursor.java:1692) at com.sleepycat.je.Cursor.putInternal(Cursor.java:1616) at com.sleepycat.je.Cursor.putNoOverwrite(Cursor.java:663) at com.sleepycat.je.Sequence.<init>(Sequence.java:188) at com.sleepycat.je.Database.openSequence(Database.java:546) at pl.edu.mimuw.zbd.berkeley.zadanie.rozwiazanie.MyFullTextSearchEngine.init(MyFullTextSearchEngine.java:131) at pl.edu.mimuw.zbd.berkeley.zadanie.testy.MyFullTextSearchEngineTest.main(MyFullTextSearchEngineTest.java:18) It seems that during the initialisation of the sequence the secondary database is forced to update. When I debug the entryToObject method of MyDocumentBiding the bytes that it tries to convert to object seem random. What am I doing wrong?

  • Matching tuples in Prolog

    - by milosz
    Why does Prolog match (X, Xs) with a tuple containing more elements? An example: test2((X, Xs)) :- write(X), nl, test2(Xs). test2((X)) :- write(X), nl. test :- read(W), test2(W). ?- test. |: a, b(c), d(e(f)), g. a b(c) d(e(f)) g yes Actually this is what I want to achieve but it seems suspicious. Is there any other way to treat a conjunction of terms as a list in Prolog?
