I made an oldschool lunar landing sim, It's in javascript, I don't have a webspace to upload it though, you can save it in notepad with html extension and play it, or maybe someone is willing to upload it on his/her space? <body onkeydown="k(event.keyCode)" style=font-family:monospace><script>
y=0;t=-1;h=550;v=45;f=150;k(48);
function k(e) {
if (e>47 && e<58 && h>0) {
y=e-48;t+=1;f-=y;if (f<0) {f=0;y=0};v+=(5-y);h-=v;if (h<0) {h=0};
if (h>0) {
document.body.innerHTML="TIME:"+t+"<BR>HEIGHT:"+h+"<BR>SPEED:"+v+"<BR>FUEL:"+f+"<BR>BURN FUEL UNITS: (INPUT 0-9)<BR>";
}
if (h==0 && v>5) {
document.body.innerHTML="TIME:"+t+"<BR>HEIGHT:"+h+"<BR>SPEED:"+v+"<BR>FUEL:"+f+"<BR>YOU ARE ON THE MOON.<BR>YOU LANDED WITH A SPEED OF "+v+" M/S, NOW YOU ARE DEAD.<BR>REFRESH TO TRY AGAIN.";
}
if (h==0 && v<6) {
document.body.innerHTML="TIME:"+t+"<BR>HEIGHT:"+h+"<BR>SPEED:"+v+"<BR>FUEL:"+f+"<BR>YOU ARE ON THE MOON.<BR>YOU LANDED SUCCESFULLY WITH A SPEED OF "+v+" M/S,<BR>IT TOOK YOU "+t+" SECONDS,<BR>YOU HAVE "+f+" FUEL UNITS LEFT,<BR>I WONDER WHAT YOU WANT TO DO HERE.<BR>REFRESH TO TRY BETTER.";
}}}
</script> I'm sorry, something is drawing me to minimalism always. [EDIT] I made my first C-program, it's the same game, but I'm kinda proud I finally made sth in C  http://www.willhostforfood.com/access.php?fileid=61169 |

Clever game. The complete lack of visual presentation outside of some instrumentation (or at least very limited) is something that I am probably going for in my game. Looks like someone beat me to the punch, here's a mirror: http://nil.cjb.net/luna/ |

Fun! Very minimalistic code that is still very playable! I'm surprised how good the interface is, really. Not having to press enter is great. And replacing text instead of scrolling keeps the user's eye in the same place.
Personal best: Landed at 5 m/s, in 16 seconds, with 25 fuel left.

YOU ARE ON THE MOON.
YOU LANDED SUCCESFULLY WITH A SPEED OF 5 M/S,
IT TOOK YOU 21 SECONDS,
YOU HAVE 0 FUEL UNITS LEFT,
I WONDER WHAT YOU WANT TO DO HERE.
REFRESH TO TRY BETTER. Woot! No fuel for takeoff. I really do wonder what I'm going to do on the Moon until the oxygen runs out! For some stupid reason, I also started out thinking the numpad was the direction, but that was because I didn't read the cockpit instructions properly  |

REFRESH TO TRY BETTER. What is "better?" Softer landing? More fuel left over? Quicker time? |

Nice gime, but I doubt that it's yours.  I coded this very same game with QBasic when I was a kid, and I copied it out from a book I lended from library. It was some kind of "learn to program"-book. It had almost exactly the same words (in finnish, but still). I'm not saying you couldn't enter with this, but since this has been done before, you should propably make a new game or improve this one. |

If that's true, this is very ungentlemanly of you, whitespace. Try to be more  . Otherwise, cool game. |

Well, I certainly didn't had the intention to be no . But you're right, for the people that haven't had zx81 or something equal: I didn't invent this game, the idea was written 30 years ago. There are several authors of several games on several platforms that have done same thing before. I seriously thought of this type of game as a genre. I'm sorry if it looked like I tried to be refreshing by taking things from the very past. Besides that I don't really understand why I would not be capable to write such simple game myself? I do think about the possibilities of making this game grow. I like the fact that you're looking at some bare-naked numbers, and still feel something through your fantasy. |

Well, this is fine if you're taking the basic idea and running with it, which is what it seems like you're doing. If so, good job, sir. |

There's only so much space to experiment sadly. To eventually stop, you need to expend 5 units of fuel per turn overall, plus 45 for a safe landing. 150 units of fuel means 21 seconds is the longest you can stay in the air. Now I feel like a rocket scientist.  |

I made my first C-program, it's the same game, but I'm kinda proud I finally made sth in C http://www.willhostforfood.com/access.php?fileid=61169(sorry windows only) the source is probably kinda embarrassing, but here you go: #include <curses.h>

Aw, you know I love this game. Why didn't anyone tell me about it!
Can I put this game on Cymon's Games?

Cymon:
I feel honoured, you may put it up on your site.
I've been visiting your site frequently last weeks, cause I want to learn programming old C with Curses, and there are some nice, clean and simple examples on your page. Could you guide me to some good places on the internet where they specifically talk about C with Curses (Yes I've used google, only the info is pretty scattered I think)? +What is the best active curses-community on the net from what you know?
I want to learn C while using curses directly from the start, instead of learning C with stdio first. Or do you think I should learn C from the simple tutorials (that use stdio) first and get into curses soon?
Thanks for your interest, and thanks in advance for your answer.
