I have to confess I stole this idea from another site. But I don't feel bad because apparently they stole the idea from yet another site. I've generalized the code and added a few more lists to it. Enjoy. Please don't sue me, other sites!
I can also really easily add more lists to this game, so if you have an idea of a new list to add to this game, just drop me a line.
This was my entry for PyWeek 13 which I eventually converted to Silverlight.
Think of a video game character and answer a series of yes/no questions as though you were that character. Once the computer thinks it has enough information, it will try to guess who you are thinking of.
The idea was to make a perfect replica of the 1986 NES game Dragon Warrior. This is still very much a work in progress as the only things that work is the map and a few of the menu options.
I've tested this on Internet Explorer and Firefox...and it only works in Firefox. I don't know about other browsers like Opera, Safari, or Konqueror. Update: I've had 1 report that it works in Opera
This is a prototype I slapped together one morning to see if I could do it. So there are many known issues (see below). I'll probably come back to it one of these days.
- Firefox only
- Pressing backspace will invoke the back button on the browser (so open it in a new window)
- Arrow keys don't work
- Click regions are a little wonky
Not much to say here. Silverlight is a much better platform than Flash for developing some kinds of games with.
A sort of MarioPaint clone. If you never played MarioPaint in 1992, then you can get up to speed here.
