Gosu-Android

A Gosu implementation for Android devices.

Installation

Install ruboto and create a project.

Recomended

With this installation method you will have a clean enviroment (bundler) to make your gosu games.

• Create a file named Gemfile.apk in your ruboto project and add the lines:

source "http://rubygems.org"
gem 'gosu_android'

• Create a folder inside res called drawable-nodpi and copy this [file] (https://github.com/Garoe/gosu-android/tree/master/res/drawable-nodpi/character_atlas8.png) in it. On linux you can do it easily with: mkdir res/drawable-nodpi wget https://raw.github.com/Garoe/gosu-android/master/res/drawable-nodpi/character_atlas8.png mv character_atlas8.png res/drawable-nodpi

Alternative

With this installation method you will have a dirty enviroment (simple file copy) to try the samples.

• gem install gosu_android

• As with ruboto, place yourself in the root directory of your app.

• Then execute gosu_android -a or gosu_android --add to automatically copy every gosu_android file to your ruboto project. It will also copy all the media files that are use in gosu_android examples.

General Information

• This is still an early effort, so there are a number of features that had not yet been added.
• There are some known bugs that I hope to fix soon.
• In its current status there are some small changes to Gosu Window initialization, check examples with many comments in the wiki.

Troubleshooting

• When using several audio files double check that all have the same codification or you could get: E/MediaPlayer(16127): Unable to to create media player
