After a frustrating wrestling match with Python (which I lost), I learned two things.<\/p>\n

First, stick to the programming I know. With 48 hours, it’s way too frustrating to jump into something too ambitious.<\/p>\n

Second, wow you programmers have some skills! It’s crazy how much there is to know… and how much it takes to get a program up and running.<\/p>\n

So, I have a basic ‘choose your own adventure’ code written up, which I like.<\/p>\n

Instead of a timer, I’m giving the player a limited number of \u00a0moves. And it will take a move to uncover more moves, but those moves could work to your benefit, or not. Ummmm… yeah, that makes sense in my head.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I’d probably better get some sleep.<\/p>\n

Can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with, happy developing!<\/p>","time":"August 20th, 2011 2:31 am","title":"The Iron Grip of the Python"}
