Khelda II [KrampusHack 2021] Game Jam

GullCode

I made a Zelda II alike world with a big map on top view and some dungeons in side view. Permanent world, only the monsters are reset between dungeons / starts.

The limit was way overdue before I could do all I wanted so I’m linking both version here, the entry for the compo and the updated / finalised one.

Night at L’Observatoire des Baronnies Provencales

GullCode

I had the chance to have a night at a space observatory in France. And luckily, there was not that much clouds. Here are the few photos of the site, the equipment, and a few last I made with their mounts.

The Team who was guiding us during the night was very kind and they drove us into the cosmos late in the night.
Not only they were good at explaining, they were also trying their best to make the visitors think by themselves before giving the correct answer.

An experience I recommend.

GIT and BitBucket

GullCode

Cloning a git repository from BitBucket can fail producing that kind of logs:

Clonage dans '.'...
remote: Counting objects: 7008, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (5921/5921), done.
error: échec RPC ; curl 56 GnuTLS recv error (-110): La connexion TLS n’a pas été terminée correctement.
fetch-pack: unexpected disconnect while reading sideband packet
fatal: fin de fichier prématurée
fatal: échec de index-pack

Working solution was to force IPv4 with -4 option, like in the following example:

git clone -4 https://giturl.com/repo.git .
