Here it is screen shot and my final entry - Won’t have any free time this afternoon.

http://www.twobrotherssoftware.com/ld48/mike/PaperScissorsRock.zip

Run it using java -jar PaperScissorsRock.jar

In the dist directory.

Source code is in there, I used Netbeans 6.0 and the whole directory can be used as a project.

I didn’t have the time this competition truly deserved but still it was nice to be in one - I was in LD6

Thought minimal game - wrote 6AI’s and the system picks which one works best against you.

I enjoyed it - thanks and I look forward to seeing whatever feed back I do get

Not a bad stretch

Got another shot at the computer - couple slices of banana bread.

I have picked Rock - Paper - Scissors (as minimal of a game that I could think of) and have written 6 different but very basic AI’s and 40% of the time will pick which ever one of those has the best track record (that part I have to write yet).

Then for the first time I will use sound with java, and pacakge it up. Considering my wife works 24 of the 48 hours and we have a little guy. I feel Ok with this. I have no vision of winning, I just wanted to get my feet wet with a Ludrum’s again.

Back At it again

Ok I have picked the simplest puzzle / strategy game I could think of - Paper Scissors Rock and am trying to make a polished presentation of it.

I have 6 AI’s laid out on paper - there is a 60% it will pick on of those randomly and a 40% change it will pick the one of those that has gone the best historically. Or that is the plan. I hope to make it pretty tough.

Lunch was 2 slices of banana bread, probably going to have a big supper and while my 4 year old is napping I want to get some code done.

Was at Mcdonalds with my son - wrote a page and a half of notes.

The game is simple but I thought of 6 different view points for the AI to have - so I have stuff to keep me busy.

How minimal

Click here to win - I don’t think would count as a game.

To be a game you must be able to win or loose.

I will be doing good to find 8 hours to work on this. But I have an idea which with 1 hour into the the base logic exists - and I have only found one of those hours.
