A warm welcome to the totally useless Game Programming in Ruby tutorial

• sudo gem install gosu or download from gosu website
• read gosu introduction: GosuWiki::RubyTutorial
• for super mario style platformer tile physics see jnrdev

shortcut:

require 'gosu'

class GameWindow < Gosu::Window
  def initialize
    super(640, 480, false)
    self.caption = "Gosu Tutorial Game"
    
    @background_image = Gosu::Image.new(self, "media/Space.png", true)
  end

  def update
  end

  def draw
    @background_image.draw(0, 0, 0);
  end
end

window = GameWindow.new
window.show

• Pixel Operations (Putpixel)
• Palette Swap (-> from: CuteWars.python)
• Animation System built-in (PuitWars' kyoto has this)
