Enjoy this little digital fidget toy. 

Hit the Random button for fun!

A special thank you to @TerryRitchie for ideas that I got from his Graphic Line Input Library & Button Library.

The project is hosted on GitHub.

Particle-Life does not compile under linux with an error message in relation to MessageBox. I guess it's only for windows !

I tested SpaceShooter2K on linux. amazing. great job porting...

I saw that you intend to maintain InForm. excellent news. I never considered using it before because without support a development software is useless...

Let me check that. It should work. Which version of QB64 or QB64-PE are you using?

Yeah. I am doing this along with George. To be honest, George is going to be the primary maintainer of the fork. I'll take care of any PE related compatibility and fixes.

I use version 3.30 of qb64pe

here is the log :

In file included from internal/c/qbx8.cpp:2546:

Thanks for the log. I pushed a fix. Please try again.

Wow what a massive project!

Someone is evolving evolution? ;-))

Reminds me of STx generation of planet or polar region, a Christmas or 2 ago.

:

Works fine for me on Manjaro MATE, QB64PE v3.1. This is pretty cool, thank you for this!

Hmmm it must have been modified within six hours, I see.

Strange error message. The "libqb.cpp" function definitions should be private, because there is a redefinition of "MessageBox" for Linux which uses either "xmessage" or "zenity". For me, anyway, I was able to fix it so it uses "zenity" but not all penguins come with that one pre-installed.

I'm getting a syntax error on line 425

I'm on Windows 10, using QB64 PE 3.3.0

I'm not sure if it's because of where the files are located or if it's something else...

Edit:  Duh, I see the previous line is 

$If VERSION > 3.3 then


Okay so I guess I'll just wait for advice at this point
