2110 - Year of the Cratebot
This game is from the old Ludum Dare platform. You can try viewing the original page on Web Archive

You are a robot, and you really like gold crates.
You like them so much that you just have to drop them off at a designated crate-drop zone. As it happens, these are located around perilous terrain -with lakes of fire and everything. Luckily for you, you are equipped with a grappling hook to navigate such hazardous terrain.
Only a windows version for now, if you're on OSX you're welcome to get the source and build it yourself -that should run just fine if you know ruby. I just wasn't able to export to an .app.
Instructions on playing from the source files on OSX:
-If you don't have them, install XCode & the developer tools from developer.apple.com (they make you sign up, but it's free)
-This will install ruby, which we can use from terminal
-Open up Terminal
-Type the following commands:
gem install chingu
sudo gem install texplay
-The second will prompt you for your password, enter it
-These two commands are installing the framework Chingu (github.com/ippa/chingu), and Texplay (used for texture scaling & chingu's 'retrofy' method
-You should be all set up now
-Download the source from the link above, unzip it, place it wherever you like
-In Terminal, type 'cd ' then drag the 2110 folder onto the terminal window. it should read something like this now:
cd /Users/YourName/Downloads/2110
-It will be different depending on where you put the folder
-Now type the command
ruby app.rb
-This should launch the game! Hooray!
Tools Used:
-Chingu & Ruby
-TextMate
-Processing ( to parse images and create map files )
-Photoshop
-cfxr
-Fruity Loops + tb_toad plugin
Any comments/criticisms are welcome! :)
Oh, and let me know if it breaks of course.
Thanks!
