Ten Drops: A Python Pygame-CE Game Inspired by Splash Back

chyok — Sun, 14 Jul 2024 06:16:02 +0000

I would like to introduce my pygame project, Ten Drops - a fun and addictive water droplet game built using Pygame-CE. This game is a loving tribute to the classic Flash game "Splash Back," reimagined for modern platforms.

What is Ten Drops?

Ten Drops is a simple yet engaging game where players click on water droplets to make them explode, with the goal of clearing the screen. It's a perfect blend of strategy and quick reflexes that will keep you entertained for hours.

Key Features

Simple, intuitive gameplay
Colorful water droplet graphics
Inspired by the beloved Flash game "Splash Back"
Built using Pygame-CE for smooth performance

How to Play

The objective is straightforward - click on the water droplets to make them burst. Keep clicking until you've cleared all the droplets from the screen. It's easy to learn but challenging to master!

Installation:

You can easily install Ten Drops using pip:

pip install ten-drops

Once installed, simply run:

ten-drops

For Windows users, I've also provided a binary file that can be directly executed to play the game.

Future Plans

I'm continually working on improving Ten Drops and adding new features. Some ideas I'm considering include:

Multiple difficulty levels
A scoring system
Sound effects and background music
Power-ups and special droplets

Conclusion

Ten Drops is more than just a game - it's a nostalgia trip for those who remember the Flash era and a fun, accessible entry point for new gamers. Whether you're looking for a quick distraction or a new coding project to contribute to, Ten Drops has something for everyone.

A Simple Python Tkinter-based Ollama GUI with no external dependencies

chyok — Sun, 14 Jul 2024 06:08:35 +0000

Hello everyone, I would like to share with you ollama-gui - a lightweight, Tkinter-based python GUI for the Ollama.

Overview

The project is very simple, with no other dependencies, and can be run in a single file.

It can serve as a first GUI page for beginners, without the need for Docker, VM or other dependencies, just Python (if not using the binary).

Features

📁 One file project.
📦 No external dependencies, only tkinter which is usually bundled.
🔍 Auto check ollama model list.
🌐 Customizable ollama host support.
💬 Multiple conversations.
📋 Menu bar and right-click menu.
🗂️ Model Management: Download and Delete Models
🎨 UI Enhancement: Bubble dialog theme
📝 Editable Conversation History

Run

Choose any way you like:

source code

python ollama_gui.py

using pip

pip install ollama-gui
ollama-gui # or python -m ollama_gui

binary file

I have provided some Windows, Mac, and Linux binaries for convenient direct use, could be downloaded from the GitHub release page.

Motivation

While looking for a UI interface for Ollama to experiment with large models locally, I found that many had heavy installation dependencies. Since I don't have particularly high requirements for the interface and UI, I decided to write an extremely minimalist UI using Python.

The project home is at https://github.com/chyok/ollama-gui

I would be most appreciative if anyone were interested, and also be tremendously grateful for any feedback or suggestions that anyone may have to offer.

Thanks,
chyok
