Socoder -> Wednesday Workshop -> #125 - The 3 Hour Challenge 2
Tue, 13 Nov 2007, 16:47
Jayenkai	Wednesday Workshop #125 : The 3 Hour Challenge 2 Time until Deadline Week : 14 November 2007 The Reason : I've been thinking about the last 3 hour challenge a lot, this week! The Challenge : Set aside 3 hours. Either one 3 hour session, three 1 hour ones, four 45 minute ones, or however you'd prefer it. Within the space of those 3 hours, create the best game that you can. Extra Info Keep your eye on the time, and don't cheat As always, you can use pre-made gfx and sounds if you need. 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 Last week everyone slept a lot. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

HoboBen	I'm done - only, it's for Linux! (Is that a first?) Anyone running Ubuntu/Debian can get all the libraries needed by installing Gambas through Applications>Add/Remove or searching "Gambas" in the Synaptic Package Manager. Gambas is like Visual Basic, but for Linux (and therefore free! ) Then either download my Gambas project source or download the compiled program To run the compiled program, open up a terminal, drag and drop the downloaded file into the terminal window, and hit enter. I might do a Windows port with Visual Basic that school lent me for my computing course, but I won't have kept to 3 hours if I do that (My apologies that it's basically Pong with slightly different controls, but my 3 hours includes learning how to use Gambas too ) -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code
