Anyone for Global Game Jam?

If you were really curious, I think there is a .zip with sources attached.

I am always curious, but a lot more curious when it is FPC code.

I was a bit surprised about Qt, since that is more for GUI than games AFAIK. SDL would have been more expected.

I guess they needed a GUI too LOL

Just FYI Qt is more than just a GUI library. It includes OpenGl support, a cool 2d canvas system, a signal & slot system and a scripting system as well just to name some features. If you want to write a game in c++ Qt wouldn't be a bad way to go imo. I know Qt is known as a GUI library primarily, but it actually offers much more. I was impressed when I tried it out a few years back. Some of it features would be nice if they were included with Delphi/Lazarus.

It's a shame that the Qt library is rather bloated, and a heavy download

Yep, a full Qt for Windows pack is a 1.6GiB download. <rotfl>
