All it does for me is immediately crash. No window or anything is shown. 
Changing usePostProcessing, useHDR, and blurQuality all to false makes no 
difference. WinXP Pro SP2, Radeon 9200 series (9200SE, IIRC), Celeron 
1.7GHz, 1GB RAM.

Looks like I only have OpenGL 1.3 though, so I guess that explains it.

I've been asking myself that same question.  I realized a few months ago 
the only thing in Yage I use it for is to create a window and get input, 
and it's kind of sucky at window creation--you can't have more than one 
and switcing to/from fullscreen is buggy.

NeHe's first tutorials already have code for window creation/input 
handling on Win/Linux/Mac, so that will probably what I go to.

Absolutely. Also it seems like SDL 1.3 will never be released... I would look
at dog for clever window and OpenGL context creation. The inability to create
3.x OpenGL context in SDL 1.2 will become a blocker very soon.

However, SDL 1.2 lower the bar for someday porting to Mac/Linux and does its
job. The fullscreen <=> windowed thing is probably related to the OpenGL
context recreation, maybe it work with pure SDL graphics.

Works for me. WinXP sp3, Nvidia 8400M GS
Quite a nice game).
Several small problems found :
    1. It always shows "You win" no matter who dies, even when the last 
survived player.
    2. On spiky figure those worms sometimes run in empty space outside...
    3. I didn't find out if  it does matter the color of apples.

Yep, shoiuld be "player X win" and keep track of scores.

It's a bug.

It does not matter.

Actually the game was totally rushed in the end, i have to polish lots of
things as you see ;)

Beautiful game.  Nice music too, where'd you get it?

The only thing I'd change would be the textures in the 3d worlds, maybe 
an earth texture for the sphere, a dinner plate for the circle (with a 
kitchen skybox), and maybe make the odd shaped ones look like a 
snowflake.  Just suggestions.

My Specs:
Athlon 2, 3 cores
Ati Radeon 5600
Windows XP

The music is by maF (http://maf464.free.fr/). He has quite a lot of unrealeased
tracks, and will probably be happy to help out provided you give proper credits.

Arbitrary mesh support was planned but I ran out of time... and ended up with
only deformed spheres :|

I'm sorry, you'll have to wait for the next release wihch should fix
once-and-for-all a bunch of ATI-related bugs. I just got a X1900 to find them
all.
