Thanks Michael for trying out my game.
The game defaults to full screen mode, but once it starts you can use
the config menu to change resolution and switch full screen to "No".
I've installed ubuntu on a space harddrive and managed get my game going
:-) There were more things wrong than just
Hello Ted,
Okay, I checked out the new version on my Kubuntu Linux (essentially Ubuntu).
The first thing I noticed is that it went into fullscreen mode, which worked,
but I have my desktop spread over two monitors and due to the way the monitors
are situated, it’s not truly a complete rectangul
Hi guys,
I've reworked my game (Time Trek) to use ffmpeg to play the movie
sequences instead of the built-in movie module.
I've coded it to work on Windows, Linux and Mac, but I'm unable to test
on either Linux or Mac, so I'm not sure if it'll work on those.
Here's a link to download it :-
Thanks for the info René. I've done some testing and I've been able to
play a movie via a pipe to ffmpeg. So it looks like that will work :-)

Hey Rene, I was involved in Google Summer of Code a while back but I

Hi,
The movie module might be dropped this release if no one can pick up

This shows it might not be too hard to make a backend which pipes from
ffmpeg.

I am looking forward to playing your game today.
The concept of Space Gladiator ii is to survive without firing a single
shot. When the aliens shoot you you have to avoid them. Each tine they
shoot they loose a bit of their lives. You can only shoot the asteroids.
I will check the Earthwar code.
Hi Diliup.
I played all 3 of your games. Space Gladiator was cool. I like the music
and the graphics and sounds were good.
I couldn't quite work out what was going on in Space Gladiator II.
Perhaps the concept of not shooting things is beyond me :-)
Earthwar was good altho I did have one cr
Super cool Ted. The video was indeed worth it...
And thanks for pointing out that distro with the video module enabled.

Thanks Luke for pointing this out.
I've changed the code skip the movies if either the movie module is
missing or there's a problem loading a movie.

I've uploaded a new version (1.1) that doesn't require the movie module,
altho I do strongly recommend having it.
Here's the new link -

Thanks for trying Diliup.
The pygame I'm using came from here -

I think the game should implement this. It is a shame that the entire game
cannot be played simply because the movies cannot be played.

Looks like Pygame has a movie lib no matter what, but in some cases it
raises a NotImplementedError based on your platform. So checking if it
imports isn't enough, you'd have to catch the NotImplementedError when
creating the movie and skip the movie during that function.

i used..
try:
from pygame import movie
print "ok"
except:
print"error"
and it printed ok so that means i have the movies module. But then why all
those errors?
are you using absolute paths for the movies?

Does anyone know what the future is for the movie module ? Will be

Or should I be looking for an alternative ? I did s
Hello Ted,
That’s quite the effort, and I’d love to give it a go on my Kubunutu Linux
setup, but the pygame movie module isn’t implemented here, so my pygame cannot
play the .mpg videos :(

Hi guys,
I've been unsuccessful at getting registered on pygame.org, so I thought
I'd post a link to my game here. Sorry if that's the wrong thing to do.
My game (Time Trek) is based on a game I played on the TRS-80 (micro
computer from the late 70s). I've updated... everything a bit :-)
