Well I am voting for Pete's, a great remake of an old program with plenty of mods to make it new and better. Nice application of the one key restriction specially including entering initials in high scores section. Great Halloween theme adaptation plus we get one of The Bob's masterpieces included.

And besides me who else tried? Dav had a couple of abandoned projects, the Witch and Candy thing had potential, maybe next year! Steve also had half hearted thing started but maybe saving for the Christmas rush :-))

@Pete nice strategy to post early and scare everyone off! :) Would you (or with your permission I will) post a copy in Programs section so that it might be accessed later from Library Games section for comments and feedback from the future.

[SMcNeill]

Aye.  I just didn't have time.  Halloween is always crazy busy here on the farm.

[Qwerkey]

Well I am voting for Pete's

Are we ready to place in the Library?

By the way, Fellippe pointed out to me that "Library" has its Special Meaning in the coding sphere.  @bplus & I are Librarians, but can anybody think of an alternative word for our curated works section?

Well I did say a week for voting and no one (me) can't vote for them self so, but give it a week, no hurry. It'd be a shame if Pete won by only one vote. Dav, Steve and TempodiBasic can say something because they participated in the one key part. Pete has to stay quiet or he'll cause a tie LOL!

@Qwerkey, how about Curators? or Caretakers?
Google says for synonyms:

curator
noun
custodian
keeper
conservator
guardian
caretaker
steward

PS I forgot to mention Cobalt who also gave one key a try with Halloween theme, sorry I saved best for last ;-))

[bplus]

OK @Qwerkey 1 week wait is over, thanks to all who participated.

I made a zip package of Pete's One Key Halloween code, Winner of the One Key Halloween 2021 Competition.
I am pretty sure it is the most up-to-date copy of Pete's edits, just source and sound files.
See if it works OK for you and check with Pete about credits and permission to post in Programs Board.

[Qwerkey]

@bplus Aye, aye cap'n will do.

long thread on this

I thought of a good one (too lazy right now ) but how about a woodpecker on a tree.

1 key move left and right - to avoid falling walnuts (or w/e) sorta like a flappy bird but one key!
each hit of the key switches sides :-)

random nuts fall

time speed up.


could be addictive.
humans are weird like that

@xra7en

[xra7en]

Ho ho ho!

dodging coal!
