Question  What python games do you want for XBMC? Post: #1
I was thinking about the all-classics games are apaering on XBMC and i decided to make this post to make a list of game able to be phyton-ported ;-) Here are my two coins:

Break-Out (i will allways defend the original, Steve Wozniak name over Arkanoid)

and when we get multicontroller support...

Tron

I will be allways a big child... Tongue

haha that would be awesome to get those both. Also, pong might be cool, you could even do two player, even though its pretty similar to break-out.

You give people 3 games and they start getting ideas in their head Smile

Currently input from different controllers is not differentiated which rules out multiplayer. Donno is considering looking into that though.

Hi.

I probably will do a Breakout version for xbmc.
At the moment I'm doing my A-Levels and I have do write a *dont know how to say* (some kind of homework) that will make about 40% of my final note.
I thougt "Coding a game" would be a good project for it. Smile
But this will take a wile and I can't start before August.

Asteron, when people make her own original games for XBMC, then you can talk about ideas Wink By the way (i don't know anything of phyton, i has only repaired a Blender-to-OpenGL phyton script to work with the latest Blender version), what about make a XGDK?

P.D.: XGDK = Xbmc Games Developer Kit, with the most common routins for make games on phyton Big Grin Something similar to the future XBMC Widgets platform but oriented to games Wink

hi
Someone asked me for a "buzzer" functionnality...
You know when you play a "society game" (don't know the english word), kind of game which require an electronic thing to decide which one push the button first.

I know it is not a game but it is a nice idea for "desk gamers".
It shouldn't be hard to do, but I really don't have time for it, maybe a beginner coder could do that !

Doable, but again, the multi controller support would need to be added first

It's an starting point... "Buzz for XBMC", with languaje support, question add-ons... and "easy" to develop (it's not more than a little database, maybe a text file with the diferents questions and answers). Asteron: THIS is an original idea Wink
