I hardcoded (using a simple script) the map data in the program and compiled it. Magic happened:Spoiler For Spoiler: I've attached the game here in my post. I'd appreciate it if someone with a CX could try it (just dump the whole folder in the Examples folder on the TI-Nspire) and tell me how it runs. Even better would be to upload a video about it. If you have a Touchpad/Clickpad you can try it too, but the games' colors are quite dark; I couldn't see much (that made me think of a function that inverts the palette...hmm).The controls are CTRL, tab, arrow keys (player 1) and 8/2/4/6, enter (player 2). Yes there's 2 player mode also.

Because the Touchpad sucks a lot.
EDIT: I'll make it touchpad and/or numpad in single player, and only touchpad in co-op.
What keys would you suggest? I admit my touchpad is crap too (feels very unresponsive and soft).

I admit my touchpad is crap too (feels very unresponsive and soft).Else, you could also use the numpad for player one and some of the bottom keys for the second player, like I for up, W for down, ',' for left, R for right and Space to shoot ?Or something even better would be to make several key_config external files (like the ones we must put in Examples) that the game would load, and according to which one we have, the key configuration is not the same. But that may be a bit annoying to do for you
I'm not sure if playing with the tiny buttons is more comfortable than with the touchpad. I think I'll keep it touchpad/numpad in the first version at least, and later I'll look into external config files if I have the time.

Moreover, the touchpad doesn't allow to push on two directionnal keys at a time (this is why my friend beat me the third time ) and doesn't allow you to keep two fingers on the "buttons"
...but once I release nSDL 0.3.1 there'll be diagonal touchpad key support too, which will probably make me update this and switch back.
