Musem

This is a game inspired by detritus that will turn your computer's images into a museum, and invite bots to walk around and judge your tastes. It will search wherever you tell it to. It will find the images buried deep in your computer, no image is safe.

Hint: try looking through the options menu, there's a lot!

The game might take a while to start on the first run, because it has to generate config files, and it will take longer the more images you have. It will also take a long time if your images are super high resolution (ex: 700x1300 each)

FAQ:

Is this going to be open source?

Yes, but it's not at a point in development where I feel satisfied with the game, so not yet.

I found a bug, where do I report it?

Just send me a message or leave a comment on the project.

Are you going to keep working on this game?

Yes, but development will be slow because of other projects.

Releases for other platforms?

I have no idea how to compile python to mac, and Linux will be out in a while because I don't have a Linux operating system readily available. If you know how to compile python to a standalone executable on mac, feel free to tell me, otherwise there probably won't be a mac release.

I made this game to see if I could make games, and I have every intention of finishing it. Your feedback is very important in the completion of this game, so if you have anything you think could be improved don't hesitate to comment and let me know.
