Socoder -> Wednesday Workshop -> #112 - The ASC.II Challenge

Wednesday Workshop #112 : The ASC.II Challenge (As in ASCII 2!)
Time until Deadline

Week : 8 August 2007
The Reason : 56 weeks ago we had the first one. This is the sequel!

The Challenge : Create a game that uses only ASCII characters. You can render Ascii sprites, or use only the text command.. But.. Don't just make a text adventure! Do something nice with the ASCII!

Extra Info
Take a look at Week 56 for some good examples.
But don't go copying.

And no cheating with 3D->Ascii renderers, either! If you wanna do 3D, make the Ascii do all the work..

Weekly Rules/How to Enter
You have until Tuesday Night/Wednesday Morning 00:00 BST to submit your levels. ^ See Deadline Link! ^

Wed.Workshop is at SoCoder.co.nr. If you can read this, you're probably already there!

Stick your entry underneath this post, leaving a link to your zip or the source of your game, or whatever. (I really should get round to that Upload thing, shouldn't I!)

If you can't figure it out, or have a really rubbish server, send it to Jayenkai@Gmail.com and I'll stick it straight onto the SoCoder (Official Wed.Workshop) site.

Entries will be collected during the week, and then entered into the next week's voting. (If there are any entries..)

Please try to keep all entries within small file sizes. 2Mb is the average maximum for files.
Additional Rules are available at the SoCoder (Official Wed.Workshop) site, under the list of previous workshops.


Last Week's Games
Only I entered, but I'm sure everyone had fun playing with Shroom's gravity engine, again!
I know I did!!

@ Jay...

Yeah, for a game without pixel graphics it works supprisingly well.
