HackKRK #11 - Geek Game Contest

At the upcoming HackKRK we will be holding a contest for the best game with ASCII-art graphics. You'll get starter code with some simple rendering functions to make it extremely easy to jump straight into it. At the end of the night a popular vote will decide who takes home the prize.

We are very excited to see what you come up with. A new roguelike? A top-down shooter? A puzzle game? Anything is possible…

The starter code will require ruby 1.9.3. If you already have rvm configured then just “rvm install 1.9.3”. Otherwise visit https://rvm.io/rvm/install/ and follow the instructions for your system. It should be easy even for non-Ruby developers to come up with interesting games!

If you feel like hacking on something completely different then that's perfectly OK too. You can also share ideas with everybody during Lighting Talks session.

Register and join us on Thursday 31st of January - 6pm at Future Simple office. Also, let others now you're coming by joining the event on FB (http://www.facebook.com/events/495374540513130).

As always... drinks and delicious food are on us. See you there!
