Volunteer Your Game. FOR SCIENCE!

Posted by
December 22nd, 2011 5:07 pm

I’m planning to do an experiment to determine some things about the effectiveness of putting one’s work into various places in a game, and I need the source code of a few games in order to do it. Specifically, I’m looking for games which can run on Windows (or in a browser) and are intuitive to play; it should take no more than 5 minutes for someone to enjoy the game. I will be making minor modifications to the code of the game, and major modifications to the assets in the game and distributing modified versions.

If you’re interested (or, at least, don’t object to my use of your game), please post a link to your game in the comments & any attribution you’d like if I do use your game.

(I will, of course, share the results of this experiment with the community, since they are probably interested)

    You’re welcome to use my games. They’re pretty simple, maybe too much so for you, but you can download them here and here:
    Ascape: http://topcraftia.no-ip.org/games/ascape/ascape-all.zip (Made for LD21)
    Forever Alone: http://topcraftia.no-ip.org/games/foreveralone/foreveralone-5.5-src.zip (Source, made for LD22)
    Forever Alone: http://topcraftia.no-ip.org/games/foreveralone/foreveralone-5.5-win32.zip (Binary, made for LD22)

    Forever Alone needs love2d to compile.
    And as for attribution? I’d appreciate you saying that the games were originally made by oldtopman.

    Good luck with this!

  2. My web based game for LD22 is called “Space Wrench”.

    The source link goes to a browser based IDE where you can mess around with it all you want.

    Please let me know what you find out.
