hack-on-games is a repository created mainly for the 'Hacktoberfest' event.
The idea is to write a game in your favourite programming language, but we strongly encourage to write it in a language you are not familiar with.
Two things before starting:
- Choose a game
- Choose a programming language
Some of the games we could've think of are:
- Hangman
- Guess game
- Tic-Tac-Toe
- Game of life
Rolling the dice- Pong
- Snake
- Tron
The language is up to you.
Contributing is fairly easy and can be done in few steps:
- Clone this repo
- Checkout to a new branch
- Create a folder under games/ with your username on GitHub
- Write the game, commit, push, create a PR
- If your game is not finished, mark the PR with [WIP] in the title, as well as 'DO NOT MERGE' label.
We strongly encourage writing a game in a language you are not familiar with.
If these tasks are too easy for you, you can hack on different projects, check out some of these links:
