I hoped that there was an easier way to check this, but your solution should work pretty good.
You're welcome. Perhaps you can change the title of this thread now? :)

Re: (buggy) video puzzle

That is still a thing I do not know how to do. Take a look at line 22 of main.lua. That's the best I could do, but even that does not work. Does anybody have a tip for me? The following function does some basic sanity tests to the file object you get from love.filedropped to see if it is in the sup...

Re: Fractal Explorer

Good stuff! It's been a while since I played around with fractals. And by 'while' I mean watching them being rendered a frame at a time on a 68000 processor running at ~7mhz over a period of several minutes. So being able to real time zoom into them in an interpreted language is borderline witchcraf...

Re: Liquid Runner

Downloaded the portable version from your itch.io page this morning and get the following error on starting the game: Error: main.lua:205: attempt to call global 'multiprint' (a nil value) stack traceback: main.lua:205: in function 'load' [string "boot.lua"]:439: in function <[string "...

Re: Liquid Runner

Thanks! The readme states that ctrl-m toggles the music, but I am going to add instructions in-game for the next release. Sorry for not reading the manual. :) I have thought of adding boxes like Sokoban that could float in the water, yeah. I would rather not add enemies since I want to make it more...

Re: Liquid Runner

As the other posters have said this is a nice little game. I would appreciate an option to toggle the music on / off. :) I also found that once at the top of a ladder, you couldn't move left or right onto a neighbouring platform easily - you were still stuck climbing the ladder. I had to jump off th...

Re: Puzzlet [WIP]

After a couple of months not working on this, I finally got round to finishing v0.02. The main differences from the first version are that players now have health counters, so food and drink need to be collected to keep players alive. Players now have unlimited shots. I thought that having to collec...

Re: Puzzlet [WIP]

I love it. The mechanics remind me of the classic Gobliiins. Wish there were more challenging puzzles though (I know it's WIP but I'm impatient) :nyu: Thanks! I never played Gobliiins. I was more inspired by the gameplay of an old Amiga game called The Lost Vikings and a much older 8-bit game calle...

Re: Puzzlet [WIP]

Warrior needs food badly! Looks pretty authentic, nice work :) Thanks! However, I found it to play quite slow, from watching one of the players slowly descend a staircase over multiple seconds to slowly flicking through the characters to get to the one I want. I know this is inspired by old arcade ...
