Shrapnel!

Downloads (both have windows exe + source code and Linux makefile):

• Compo version
• Post-compo: Smaller zip, sound latency fix (no code or data changes) (new)

Uses SDL, SDL_mixer and SDL_image. I used kate for code/text, gimp for graphics, sfxr for sound effects (thanks DrPetter!), and pxtone to make music.

If the Linux version crashes when you run it on 32-bit x86, use this SDL library (contains a fix for a bug in SDL_SoftStretch)

Edit: Figured out the Windows sound latency issue! Seems the SDL.dll I used was buggy. Replacing it with one from libsdl.org fixes things.

   Too short , I beat it in like 30 seconds…
   But really fun while it lasts! Good feeling.
   Shouldn’t the shooting sound be synched to when you shoot?

   Thanks =). Yeah, I know it’s way too short and easy, I ran out of time to make levels so I just slapped something together at the last minute =P

   About the sound, it should, but it seems there’s some sound lag in the Windows port. Perhaps it’s because I accidentally built it with debug info and no optimization =P
