Re: [Haskell-cafe] ANN: Silkworm game

Yes, it is quite fun. I think it should be using cabal's datadir from Paths_silkworm.hs to install (and find) the resources. Yell if you can't figure out how to do that. (xmonad has an example) -- Don bugfact:

Congratulations!!! It is actually a fun game to play too :-)

The semester is over, my final project was a success (at least in that I passed the class) and it s time now to release the game I made for Graphics 455: Silkworm!

This is my first full application in Haskell. The process has been an enlarging experience I ve come to really enjoy the mental work that goes into thinking about a program in a functional way. I highly recommend the challenge to other software engineers.

Silkworm combines the Hipmunk binding to Chipmunk 2D Game Dynamics with OpenGL, and GLFW (an alternative to GLUT).

It s built to work on Mac OS X, but it uses cross-platform libraries so it should be fairly easy to port to other platforms. The source code is here [2] and below are some screenshots [1]
