City of Rage
A downloadable game for Windows
City of Rage is a tribute to "Streets Of Rage", and all beat them up
arcade games from the golden age of video games history (90's).
this sound like the OpenBOR engine, doesn't it ?
for those who doesn't know it: OpenBOR is a game engine for
making beat them up games.
I got the inspiration to do this game when I was reading
Ultimate Mortal Kombat's leaked source code.
in the development I've used the MAME emulator to study
the original game (Streets Of Rage 2), you can pause and advance
frame by frame in any game you play, it's really a great and
helpful feature that I really appreciate.
completing all the characters require a lot of time and effort
so I will just leave it like that for now
and maybe someday when I have the time and desire
I will add more characters.
how to play:
use the arrows keys to move and the following keys:
H : to attack
J : to jump
K : for special attack
P : pause the game

I maintain a Linux distro and recently updated it to PyGame 2.0.1. As one of the tests, I ported this game to Linux. It seems to work but my distro and most others will be reluctant to package it unless there's a specific FOSS license.
Have you decided whether or not to put a FOSS license on your games? Commonly used options include BSD, MIT/X, GPL 2, and GPL 3. The first two are less restrictive and the last two are more restrictive. I use Creative Commons CC BY-SA 4.0 or CC BY-SA-NC 4.0 myself for some of my own work.
If you'd like your games to distributed just at this site, you can leave things as they are. If you'd like to be in Debian, Mint, Arch, and other Linux distros, you'd add a text file named COPYING or LICENSE to the source code for each game and state the license there.
For what it's worth, my own distro includes a number of legacy and/or retro games. Examples of PyGames include Monsterz, PySolFC, PySweeper, Monsters and Mushrooms, and BubbMan2. Other games include Rocks'n'Diamonds, Secret Maryo Chronicles, Deliantra, OpenSpades, etc.
PyGames from this site would fit in well, so I'm hoping that more gamedevs or beginning gamedevs will settle on specific FOSS licenses.
ok, thank you for posting , i will consider it.
