I've just finished a little game for the mac. I think most of the bugs are worked out, but I've only had a few friends test it out for me. This game is for my senior project, and I'd like to have a few people give it a go, to see if i can catch any more bugs/add minor enhancements before the end of the semester. So, if anyone is interested check out my game and post up comments, bugs, suggestions.. thanks!

I downloaded it but it doesnt launch. I found this in the console

dyld: /Users/martin/Downloads/Kaboom.app/Contents/MacOS/Kaboom can't open library: /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (No such file or directory, errno = 2)

what version of OS X are you running? I think that libstdc++ is pretty standard..

I was running 10.3.8 and got that error

Since going to 10.3.9 now runs fine

Nice OpenGL animation on the little guy. That must have been fun to get working.

I was using gcc 4.0, going back to 3.3 took off that lib dependency, so now it should work on every 10.3, not just 10.3.9.. anyone with 10.2 get it to run?

where did you get the music or did you make it?

I liked it, reminded me of the old Atari game. One thing though, you might run into some copyright issues from Activision or who ever makes the Activision games now, as their game was also called Kaboom. Also, i am sure Warner Brothers would have issue with Martin the Martian in your game, at least without their permission. Other then that, I liked it!

The music and sound effects were done by a friend. I don't know anyone who can make me a 3d model to replace the snork for pc or the martian on the mac.. It's just a cheap game for school, I don't expect enough popularity to attract any attention.
