I’m just posting to say that I’ll compete. But don’t get too scared, last time didn’t go that well - I ended up somewhere in the middle. This will be my third LD though, that’s got to count for something.
I’m going to try pyglet this time, the performance can’t possibly be worse than mirra that I used last time. But first, sleep - 4 am is not a good hour for creativity.
If anyone like the music in my game (though I’m probably the only one who does) listen to this special edition. Infact, you should listen to it either way.
Yes, that is me playing the tuba 
Ok, some improvements:
Python was a little to slow for a few thousand stars, so I had to resort to Pyrex. Pyrex really needs better error reporting, but after looking at the generated c-file and tweaking some it worked. Now I can have 50 000 stars without problem 
Under 10 000 is enough though.
Next I think I have to do something about that artwork… but that’s for tomorrow.
Wee, lasers and explosions! What more do a game need? Oh right, should make some particle effects later.
The explosion physics turned out really nice on the first try , but you can’t really see that in a screenshot. They actually do have a chain reaction feeling to them, but more of that is coming.
Running app, chipmunk physics and really ugly art. But where are the chain reactions? I don’t know
