Question

my os is OSX 10.8.2. i have followed the instructions from rubygame wiki, and everything is ok during my installation. However, when I require the rubygame in my ruby script, something happend:

    irb(main):001:0> require 'rubygame'

what should i do?

Was it helpful?

Solution

This fixed it for me. But basically ruby-sdl-ffi and Rubygame look unmaintained. I would recommend against using them unless someone adopts these projects.

OTHER TIPS

In my opinion it must be the version problem on the link you given they mention only 10.5 and 10.3. You must check the changelog for new changes, it might happend sometimes
