"There's mutiny in the ranks!"

Calm down there, there's no mutiny going on. iDevGames is a wonderful resource, but half of its luster has been lost over the last few years because of never ending server problems, setbacks, and time constraints. What always made me continually visit iDevGames when I first came across it was the never ending pile of assets available. These assets have been lost in the abyss of hard drive backups somewhere in Carlos's home, and several members of the community have been waiting for these assets to be returned to the iDevGames site. Carlos, being the busy man he is, has not yet had time (as I understand it) to do so, so in the mean time, I am making my personal archive of iDevGames assets downloaded years ago available until they are restored on the iDevGames website.


Among the collection are sounds, music, backgrounds, tiles, sprites, and the 2003 uDevGames entries. At the present time I only have the code for a few entries available, but hopefully that'll be expanded, or become unnecessary as they are hosted on the uDevGames site. If you have any assets from back in the day, I'll be happy to host them. Enjoy:

Very much appreciated. I hope others can help find missing resources to add to the pile.

You should visit the IRC room :)

But yes, the people have always been very helpful here, but nothing keeps me coming to the iDG site like assets would. I'm always in need of placeholders or actual assets. I remember trying to make games around these assets.

Well, have fun I guess.... Of course I could be a bad guy and say "Read the iDevGames license that is included with my assets..." (about re-distribution).... :D

It's all for the betterment of man-kind. :) or at least iDevGames users. More assets are on the way...
