EDIT: I also had a look at your source. Clean, but looks as though you, (not me) could cut out a bit and make it a bit shorter. But beautifully done. :bow:
Thanks a lot! I spent a lot of time making sure the code was as clean as I could make it, though I ran out of time during the end and kinda threw all the GUI rendering into the main Game class.

It is a pain to compile on Linux though, as some of your includes have lowercase names, whereas the actual filenames start with uppercase, also the resources folder is missing from the source so even after I got it to compile on Linux it segfaulted as it couldn't load the images :P

EDIT: copied the resources folder from the windows download and it works fine, so that's a non-issue :D
Yeah, I didn't really have time to port it over to Linux. Never developed on Linux before either. I've gotten comments about this and I'll keep an eye out for it next time.

Thanks. I won $200, a moderator position on his website, and I get to be a team member on his next project. Half-Life 2 was also a prize, but I already own it, so I passed it on to the 2nd place winner.
