Coding competitions?
Off topic → Programming → Coding competitions?
SOLVED
I think making competitions for coding could benefit young coders, especialy if the competitions are in teams. Some people may even learn a new language! The idea just seems unique to me.
Please reply with your response below. If you support this idea, post a programming language we should start with.
@nalaek2004 Scratch is pretty much Java in blocks
Anyways, thank you @PanFritz for the link. When should we start?
#Alright lets do this properly then
Starting tomorrow until Sunday make a game not using any hardcore game engine (unity, source etc) since most things there are already done for you. Pre made bits of code and classes are allowed but only if YOU wrote them. Libraries are allowed such as (pygame, lwjgl, etc…) You can use whatever language you prefer, keep in mind the OS independency. Up to two people can collaborate to make the game together.
If your game isn’t OS independent you get -5 points. (So use openGL) (OSX, WINDOWS, LINUX)
Your code must be uploaded on github along with all the dependencies listed and their sources. On sunday and no day before post the link to your repository in this thread!
Your code will be judged on :
- Performance and efficiency of your code. 10 points
- Organization and aesthetics of your code. 10 points
- Originality of your game. 5 points
- Other 20 points
TOTAL 45 points
#AND FINALLY THE THEME
Old but gold
Good luck and have fun!
