Being native english must be a pain when it comes to read something on internet :smiley:

Ah, reading it a second time I see the second one is ā€˜emulatorā€™ rather than ā€˜editorā€™.
(I saw the eā€¦torā€™ and my brain filled in the blanks.)

In which case, it should have just been something like ā€œand an integrated emulatorā€¦ā€,
but itā€™s been published now so it doesnā€™t really matter anymore,
ā€˜tweetsā€™ canā€™t be edited as far as Iā€™m aware.

The quality of English varies significantly even amongst natives.
I went to school with people with poorer spelling and grammar skills than a lot of the non-native English speakers here.
Personally I find American spellings and terminology far more grating than missing particles, minor misspellings or grammar mistakes.

Now that I think about it,
in there are two very specific grammatical issues that irk me to no end when it comes to programming.
But I wonā€™t discuss them here because itā€™ll probably take the thread off on a tangent.

I am now programming using the Python IDE for the first time @FManga and @Hanski, and itā€™s really fun.

Unfortunately I canā€™t take part in the competition, but I have to know how it works :wink:

Its great. Really great.

I just updated the overview video in the top post. I added music :slight_smile: and an explanation, how to restore the project by dragging the zip packet on the editor.

@Hanski and @FManga , for the first time, I had 2 hours to try this micropython editor myself

I ā€¦ am ā€¦ out ā€¦ of ā€¦ words. I am humbled by your contribution.

Itā€™s fun. Itā€™s easy. It runā€™s amazingly well on the hardware.

I donā€™t know what to say, other than THANK YOU!

As for everyone else, if you own a Pokitto and youā€™re NOT giving it a shot, you are missing out big time
(looking at you, @VonBednar :hugs:)

We want more! Just add some sword fight and dialogues and youā€™ve done :wink:

Should we have a table that summarize all entries in the main post?

The idea of controlling the height of the jump is good. I also like that there is a lot more variation in the game than expected :slight_smile:

I just pushed an update to the editor:

  • Automatically skip intro in emulator
  • Added mixer. Iā€™ve no idea how to use it, dunno if it actually works or if I broke something.
  • screen.blit is faster if you disable transparency by using a color above 15: screen.blit(img, x, y, 16)
  • Capital letters allowed in file names.

Is that why itā€™s not working for me atm?

55

No idea. It works here. :stuck_out_tongue:
Save, refresh and try again?

56

Good changes!

But there are problems for me as well. I can run Python the Snake, but not Frogitto.

Hmmā€¦ I see:

A couple of demos work, others (and my project) donā€™t seem to work at all.

I am puzzledā€¦

That makes two of us. :laughing:

Edit: found the problem. Fixing.
