A Scholar In The Woods

  • A short interactive story written by @Rastagong (http://rastagong.net)
  • Based on Python 3, Pygame 1.9.2 and my own RPG engine, the Narro Engine (v0.2). Repo: https://github.com/Rastagong/narro)
  • This game was made for the Ludum Dare 26, an awesome game jam. Ludum Dare page: http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-26/?action=preview&uid=3761

  • Attribution: Write Feather Icon (Narro.ico) is a work by Double-J Design published under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license (http://www.doublejdesign.co.uk/)
  • You should use the Releases folder rather than the Trunk. There are a compo version and a post compo version with a few fixes added after the deadline.
    For each version, both the sources and the Windows/Linux builds are available.

How to play?

Installing the game

On Windows:

  1. Grab a Post Compo build for Windows from the Releases/Post Compo folder.
  2. Unzip it somewhere, and launch play.exe.

On Linux:

  1. Grab a Post Compo RPM package from the Releases/Post Compo folder, or an Ubuntu build.
  2. Install it on your system. Alternatively, you can build the game from the sources if you have the required dependencies.

Building the game from the sources

  1. Requirements
    Make sure Python 3, Pygame 1.9.2 or higher and Numpy are installed.
    As of May 9, 2013, there are only pre-releases of Pygame 1.9.2. You will find them on the Pygame website: http://www.pygame.org/download.shtml.
    If you don't find them there, you may try here for Windows: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame.
    For Linux, you'll have to look in the Mercurial repo: https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/downloads.

  2. Download the Post Compo sources from the Releases/Post Compo folder of the repo and unzip them somewhere.

  3. Run "python play.py" to launch the game.
