ClapTraps v1.1

Here's the newest version of ClapTraps.

New features:
  • Spiced up graphics by the amazing Dave Jeffery!
  • Redefinable keys!
  • Reworked code so new game modes can be added in the 'Defs' folder!
  • A new game mode called 'Arrows'! (look in the 'User Levels')
  • A few other minor things
Maps created with version 1 won't work with this version because of the new game mode functionality.

If the text boxes look bad, updating PyGame should help.

Hope you have even more fun than version 1!

ClapTraps: Moving forward

Hi all.

ClapTraps v1.1 is in the works. It'll feature some awesome new graphics by Dave Jeffery, as well as a code reshuffle which makes it even easier to create new rulesets, and to make it possible for level sets to use different rules. Python makes these things incredibly easy to do :)

Also I've created a website to make linking to the game a bit easier, especially if I add too many posts here.

And if you've seen my Repton videos and liked the music that I made for them, you can download a few of the tracks here at the Internet Archive. I'll get some of the other songs up soon.
