Hey, I just got done programming the Game of Life simulation, which is a very easy game in terms of the rules, but produces some really complex results.


Hmm. How did you find it? Was it easy or hard to do?

Wasn''t too bad because the cells follow simple rules, and the board is just a 2d array. If you want to allow zooming or scrolling, calculating the offset of the cells is the hardest part, but not any harder then the basic 2d side scrolling game.
Want to be ambitious? Try a modular neural-network style autonomous evolving robot colony in a simulated eden. Things like vision and communcation should be emergant.

Switch it on and come back after a millard or more iterations.

Quack: thanks for the offer. I''d like to make the AI editor as non-complex as possible, so I''m planning on having a "building blocks" system, where the user can graphically manipulate little blocks representing commands.

bomberman rules,
i''m currently workin on a 3d bomberman with quake models

the fun part is makin lots of fun powerups and multiplayer.
the multiplayer part will be 3-rd person so it''ll be pretty fun, i'' m thinkin of implementing teamplay, deathmatch and capture the flag

another fun thing to code is Pong
