Music was really hard. I started working on doing some procedural arranging of loops for variety, but I couldn't get it to produce reliably good sounding music, so I just went with something simple, if repetitive.
Hi TripleHexel, I think I might have fixed your problem (I changed the shell for that script to bash instead of sh), but I'm not sure as I can't reproduce it myself. Could you try again? If it still doesn't work, please try running the following command from the tulip directory:
I've updated the Linux build of the engine so that most of the dependencies are statically linked. This means you don't need to install specific versions of glew, glfw or openal to run it. There are no changes to the game itself.
Very lovely game, and really nice soundtrack! It probably need some more random, not only the color of the player, because after 11-12 gameplays i felt it was a bittle lit repetitive!
This is very addictive 8| Like a cross between the impossible game and bit trip runner. The thing that makes this good is the well thought out placement of the obstacles.

I did some research and that error could happen if you're using the default Windows OpenGL drivers (which have no hardware acceleration). Installing the latest graphic drivers from your GPU manufacturer might help.
Fun, addicting game with minimal controls. I like the way the elapsed time is visualized and I thought the way the music dropped whenever you died was funny.
Cute. The game's main mechanic might be improvable if there were occasionally squares you would actively want to be on the top or bottom to touch - powerups or score boosters of some sort.
Overall, a very competently done minigame. The flower garden aspect of it was a nice touch too.
Cool and addictive! I like that no matter how chaotic blocks look, you can always pass them. Also, the planting idea is awesome. In fullscreen tulip heads appear higher than they should. Got 71.31s.
This game showed up in several favourites lists, so I thought, I got to play it. It's polished and well balanced even while the levels have some randomness, but I didn't enjoy it all that much. I suppose it's a little too simple for my tastes, or I've seen this kind of game a little too often (such as line runner which I also didn't like much). Also, minimalist graphics don't work for me (something I found out more than ever during this LD). This should make a good Android game with a bit of sightseeing added though.

Also very nice sound. :)
It took me longer than I am proud of, to understand what these markers on the bottom stand for (the previous attempts) :D
good job

$ ./ltclient data
The patterns are quite challenging too and kept me on the edge of my seat. :P
