1 day 20 hours 19 minutes remaining until impact

I’ve had to abandon my idea of using IndieLib. I had some strange problem with running in debug mode. Oh well, I am excited to be using PTK instead. It was also on my list of engines to try. So far I like it. Actually, Wow, it is an appropriate engine for this theme because it takes a very minimalist approach to everything.

I’ve decided to do a minimalist turn-based strategy game. I’ve been contemplating what the bare necessities are required. The idea is still fluid, but I have put together my framework and implemented the ‘Next Turn’ button. That seems a necessary element for a turn-based game don’t you think.

Here’s a screen shot:

First screen shot of my minimalist turn-based game.

The logo is actually a test of my codes ability to put a sprite up, it won’t be a part of the game ;)

And you can even download my executable here to try clicking the ‘Next Turn’ button! (Windows build, sorry I don’t have a Mac or Linix to create builds with) Let me know if you have problems. It’d be useful to address them now.
