Building Up Steam: The Game

Last updated: Tuesday, April 4, 2006, 4:51 PM EDT

I recently participated in a competition called PyWeek, which is a weeklong competition to write a game in the Python Programming Language.

Here is my submission.

Building Up Steam

You are a redheaded female highly skilled with the sword, and you're pissed.

Perhaps it's the endless ninjas that keep trying to kill you. Perhaps it's the fact that this is only a contest entry an not a real game. Perhaps it's biological reasons we won't get into.

Whatever the reason, you gotta take it out on someone. Might as well be the ninjas that keep trying to kill you.

You may download the game here:

• aerojockey-pyweek-win32.zip: a fully self-contained version packaged for Windows
• aerojockey-pyweek-src.zip: the source code, requires Python 2.3 and some external libraries, should run on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS
