"Triangle Super" -- A fast-paced minimalist game

[Aster]

Ladies and Gentlemen; I present to you, Triangle Super!

        Triangle Super was a game I intended to submit for the 26th Ludum Dare, but do to a few issues, I didn't get the chance to submit. However, I'm not going to just drop my first ever piece of standalone software just because some pretty stupid reasons, so I finished and polished the game, and here it is!

        The idea came to me, after I learned that the theme was "Minimalism". After having contributed to Open Hexagon, that game's concept still affects my thinking in the most wild of ways, so I obviously wanted to make a "reverse" clone. Triangles taking their revenge. However, I kind of changed my mind half way, and this came out.

        The gameplay is very simple, you control a hexagon using a mouse, and you're trying to avoid incoming triangle-delta-things, headed towards you in random directions. Use space to take screenshots.

        To aid myself in the fabrication of this marvel, I have used Thor 2.0 and, obviously, SFML. Other than the font, the rest of the game was entirely produced by me (music as well), and Grimshaw/DevilWithin has helped me with learning how to use trigonometry in my code. Thanks to eXpl0it3r as well, for notifying me of Arial.tff's copyright issues, and replacing it for me.

So, let's get on to where you can possibly find my prized work of art..

• The source repository can be found on Github.
• The Windows download can be found here.
• Linux builds: 64bit Linux and 32bit Linux.
• If someone wants to compile an OSX build for me, that'd be great!

That's all I have to say as of now.. I hope you like it!
I do plan on improving the music when I get the time, it's on my itinerary.

Cool game! It's really difficult, my record was 1725... Sometimes it's very confusing, if the triangle color is almost black and the whole screen is just full of the smoke particles

Yeah, at first I kind of wanted to make it easier to play, by making the triangles not turn black and having the particles fade away quicker, but then I decided that if the game was harder, it was better. :p Good job on beating my own personal highscore, though!

Good job man What program did you use to make the music?

[Grimshaw]

Brain and fingers 2.0, its awesome!

Thanks! I used my piano to play the music, and my brain to compose. It's single track, and I used strings backing. To record, I used Audacity.

Thank you, Master. I look forward to the way of the Jedi.
