What is SimpleGame? SimpleGame is a series of simple (as the name implies) games, designed as a tutorial-by-example. More specifically, SimpleGame is the same game, implemented in a wide range of languages. I hope that by providing example source code in such a format, readers who are familiar with one programming language can easily pick up others. Why a Game? Firstly, payroll software is boring. It is a cliche example, and one that is not terribly fun to build. Moreso, payroll software doesn't leave a lot of room for creativity. Game Development on the other hand, afford much freedom to the individual programmer. The concept can be extended as the developer sees fit, and it lends itself well to imagination. |
