Games to investigate


Games to add

- Please format the text in this section to match the format of a valid Tcl list described later in this page (name, description, url, category). The name will correspond to a filename/directory name, so I recommend against using spaces.

  • [Properly formatted list describing already investigated games]

Rejected games

Binary dependencies

  • Babbleback machine - Snack - thoroughly depends on Snack
  • Asteroids - Snack - should be fairly easy to make this dependency conditional
  • TurnOut {description here} http://wfr.tcl.tk/916 {category here} - Depends on Img - should be fairly easy to make this dependency conditional on Img being available.

Not a game - This is somewhat arbitrary as some "games" that are included aren't games either

Larry SmithIt will run fine under Tk, but it reads from stdin and writes to stdout - that would have to be changed for Tk. Also, it has only a teeny, tiny, microscopic sketch of a mere shadow of a game built in. It's an engine. No one has ever written a game using it.


Below is an alphabetized list of games that are currently in tkgamepack (sdx version = 2005/03/23 03:41:16 38001-73898). The text is in the form of a valid Tcl list with 4 elements for each game (name description url category). This text will be used to generate the outline used for each new release of tkgamepack.
