There Is No Screwdriver.

Sunday, April 20th, 2008

So here it is. I began writing the story for this game at 11:30PM on 04-19 and started writing the code at 4:00AM 04-20. I have never coded before in my life. I have no previous knowledge of coding but I have spent time around people who do code. I came into this contest with 22.5 hours left and wanted to have a text adventure completed before the deadline. I came close. I did not have time to finish writing the story but I did implement quite a bit and learned alot. So, as far as I am concerned Mission Accomplished.

There Is No Screwdriver.

Text Based Adventure written in Python.

1.19MB contains source .py file.

I had some hosting issues, hopefully I am not too late.

Banana Ship

While trying to think of a decent game to make for the Weird/Unexpected/Surprise theme (a theme I had voted for, but never expected to win, so I never thought about any real game ideas before start), I sat down at wrote Banana Ship.

It’s not meant to be a real entry, but yet follows the theme quite well. If anything, it lacks in that it’s not much of a game, you just have to figure out what to do, and it’s not much of that either. It’s more like a short story, really, but you might enjoy it for a minute or so before it ends.

You materialize out of nowhere, and have no idea who you
are, or what you are expected to do.    

You are wearing a pink sheet cut into a really ugly robe.  

All around you are filled with nothingness, except for a
small, yellow banana, floating in the air right in front
of you.

Really, my LD9 entry was my crowning acheivment. I originally had some grand schemes to dominate the competition with a distributed networked web based magic thing. Those schemes amounted this:
