Bounce - a simple Python game

You can find the GitHub repository here

Bounce is a game that I wrote using Python in less than a day that is simple enough to run on any system
but still enjoyable!
It is designed to function on any system that can run Python 3.10 and PyGame.

Downloads:

• Windows XP:
  • Compiled executable (v1): here
  • Compiled executable (v2): here
• Windows Vista and later:
  • Compiled executable (v1): postponed due to university
  • Compiled executable (v2): postponed due to university
• The entire repo itself (for those with old browsers): bounce-main.zip

• Audio can sound very choppy on low-end hardware, I probably just have to reduce the bitrate.
• Audio is delayed and sounds unusually high-pitched when running the XP-compatible compiled script, read below for more info.
• In order to get Bounce to "compile" on Windows XP, I ended up having to not only modify the script, but also install Python 3.4.4, PyGame 1.9.6 and py2exe 0.9.2.2. As a result, it is recommended to NOT use this build on any version of Windows other than XP.
  • Build instructions will be coming soon, hopefully...
  • Windows XP users are just recommended to grab the scripts itself and a modern version of Python from here
