Wanted: Pong

General Discussions
#1

Can’t find my original demos when I wrote stuff a couple of years ago to learn programming.

Would really like to get hold of a newbie’s version of Pong, PacMan, Asteroids, or what have you, that he or she wrote for the purpose of learning to write a game. Comments and notes are greatly appreciated.

Usage: I’m writing articles in the Wiki and would LOVE to have a sample project like this to work with. Any contributors will be suitably given credit in my articles… you may also co-write or edit my articles about your code if you wish.

Thanks.

And I’d love any simple networked games with source-code.

In fact, if you’ve got a working game that isn’t networked - but you’d like it to be - I’ll help you make it networked multiplayer, if I can use it as an example in networking articles/tutorials.

At the moment, I’m using multiplayer tetris as an example - and giving sample code, even though I don’t have a complete program. It would be much better if I could provide a downloadable copy of the complete (simple) game along with the article…All credit given, of course!

Heres a real simple networked game applet, was done in around 2000 in a class for school.
