(no subject)
I dusted off my old game code today. I have an amazing ability to bite off way more than I can chew.
On the bright side the game actually works, and I'm pretty sure it's playable but with no front end of any kind, so it's kinda difficult to tell. Basically I invented a chess like game, but using hexagon tiles and an axial coordinate system, so I don't know where anything is. And writing displays is difficult enough that I never got around to it. I'm trying to get better a javascript so I thought I might pick up this project again... Seriously, crypto is way easier than this, for me anyway, translation is one of those things I am particularly bad at.
(You might be wondering why I used a tiling and coordinate system that few people outside of gaming ever think about... I did it so long ago, I don't remember anymore, but I think it had to do with testing and realizing that some weapons were broken because distance on square tiles is weird.)
