Title: Forking open-source games with $ sign
Post by: grondilu on April 20, 2011, 01:11:00 AM
I thought of this when I saw a screenshot of this open-source game:

I think it might be cool to fork this game and have him use a bitcoin sign instead of $.


Here is the game website:

PS.  It should be pretty easy.  Basically you just have to edit the file data/item/coin/coin.png.  I'll try.

PS#2.  Damn it I get a :

dpkg-source: error: cannot represent change to neverball-1.5.4/data/item/coin/coin.png: binary file contents changed

Pff...  of course the file has changed:  I've just edited it!


Any debian expert around?

Wonder if it could be implemented as a "theme"... Then you don't need a fork.

It should be.  There is a euro coin already in the source code.  But I failed in compiling even the original version.

I uses the following png to draw the coin:

PS.  Oh yeah I managed to compile finally.  I just add to add "-lX11" for some reason.
