Any games that involve programming?

[DrenDran]

So none of these use an actual programming language?
(Even if its made up for the game)

ComputerCraft (a minecraft mod) sounds fun. It gives programming a higher purpose than "because I can"

I know of that and so far thats closest to what im thinking of.

On a phone, will try later.
But how and what do you program?

It's not based on programming so much as understanding logic gates in an abstract manner, basically.

Robocode, you basically program your tank to fight another person's tank. I found it on the torque website a long time ago, but they seem to have taken it down from there since, anyway here's the site:

I recall somebody on the TGS podcast mentioning some experimental game which had you face impossible tasks, but you were allowed to change the game's programming so it wasn't so impossible, but rather easy. I forget the name though.

Garry's Mod with Wiremod comes with an assembly language (HL-ZASM) and programming language (Expression 2). Currently a system called Starfall is being developed which compiles to Garry's Mod Lua and is incredibly fast when compared to Expression 2.

Random E2 code of mine for development purposes with EGP screens:

Code: [Select]

@name
@inputs Active WL:wirelink
@persist
@trigger
if(Active & ~Active)
{
    WL:egpTextLayout(1,"Random Test.",vec2(200,200),vec2(500,500))
}
 
if(Active)
{
    interval(50)
    Number = randint(1024)
    Number2 = vec2(Number,Number)
    Number3 = vec4(Number,Number,5000,40)
    WL:egpBox(2,Number2,Number2)
    WL:egpColor(1,Number3)
    WL:egpColor(2,Number3)
} else
{
    WL:egpClear()
}

The @stuff is file-level metadata?

0x10c will use Assembly programming. Dotdotcircle and I are going to write a C/C++ compiler and write an operating system and stuff for our ship when it comes out.

The goal is to hack the other "computers" on the network.

Used to declare name of chip, variables etc

I'm laughing at how they included figlet. How loving useless is figlet?

LOL, they included cowsay too. Probably some other useless commands.

Maybe this.

There's a command called 'joke' that tells a joke, lol.
