Nice game! I can tell it will be tough to come up with a single winner this month. The goal is to identify all matching pairs. Double click 2 squares to reveal the colored tiles underneath. Nice version of the children's memory game. Sean says: "This one is similar to those old fashioned ZX81 games (an old UK Computer that was about 5 years before the PC was invented!!!) My game is still a little un-refined as its basically 2 lunch times and tonight finishing off." I asked judges on three continents to vote for their top 3.
If one blows up your PC, please walk to a neighbor's PC and post in the lounge so that no one else has the same fate.
However, I have NOT examined every bit of code to make sure they are safe. I have virus scanned each entry using Norton before uploading it. Wow! Here we go - 18 entries submitted by the deadline, a screen shot, and a link to the download. The winner will receive the incredibly useful Message Board CD. We'll let this challenge run until November 15th, 2002. The sub-challenge is to whoever amasses the highest score in the game which is chosen as the best diversion. Send a copy of your game to and I will post it in a download section of the site so that others may try it out. You can recreate an existing game (I think my first program ever was a simulation of the dice game "craps"), or invent a totally new game. The game can include VBA or be in straight Excel. Create something that will be interesting enough to cause other people to waste their valuable time playing the game. The October 2002 Challenge is to create a game or diversion in Excel.
