Socoder -> Wednesday Workshop -> #071 - The One Button Challenge
Tue, 17 Oct 2006, 16:53
Jayenkai	Wednesday Workshop #071 : The One Button Challenge Time until Deadline Week : 18 October 2006 The Reason : We've done this before! But not in the Wed.Workshop! The Challenge : Make a game that uses only one button! Preferably Spacebar, or a Mousebutton.. A nice easy to access button, that can be pushed.. like a button.. (You may use Esc to quit.) Extra Info No up, no down, no left, no right, no Mouse co-ords, no nothing.. Just One Button. And Esc to quit. 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 already there! Stick your entry underneith this post. (I'll get round to uploads, sometime, honest!) If you can't figure it out, 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 entered into next week's voting. (If there are any entries..) All entries will be entered into voting which will take place once a voting system has been organised.. Please try to keep all entries within small file sizes. 2Mb absolute maximum. Additional Rules are available at the SoCoder (Official Wed.Workshop) site, under the list of previous workshops. (Click the Wed.Workshop thing, over on the left!) Last Week's Games Last week things fell apart a little bit more, and there were two entries. But TNT was disqualified, on account of his "game" was even less of a game than Magicman's "game". So Magicman won, but only just.. Will this week be normal? Probably not! Lets see if we can get a few entries, this week, eh? -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Jayenkai	I've just started mine, and fairly quickly realised that a multiplayer mode would be fun.. If you're making a multiplayer game, you may use an extra button per player. But each player can only ever use their single button! -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
