One of the things that was cool about the old Antic/Analog/Byte days were the little programming contests or "challenges". Like write the best game that uses only 1K, stuff like that. It would be cool to see who can write the best 4K 2600 game from scratch in only one month (100% original, not just Pong clones). Sometimes the best output can come when you work quickly in one furious burst, before you have time to second guess your ideas. It probably wouldn't result in the cleanest code, but it might result in some novel gameplay ideas and graphics. -- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/stella.html Don't post pirate BINs to Stellalist. Be a programmer, not a pirate. Write the best game, win framed autographs of famous Atari alumni!!
