Because Lloyd requested that this be posted somewhere less ephemeral than Twitter, I am blogging about this game: Rat Versus the Big Apple. This originally began as Erin’s “hastily-written, insanely stressful Java project.” I requested the source code, ported it to JavaScript (along with some refactoring), added some CSS, and now the whole world can play this wonderful adventure game. Enjoy.
The source code is also available as open-source on GitHub. It can be easily modified to create one’s own adventure game. Maybe I’ll make an adventure-game maker.
Oh and the game should look great on iPhone and any other smart phone. I’ll post about the technical stuff at some other time (and probably not on this blog).
