Guest Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Evening all, I plan on doing a 24hr marathon tomorrow. If i can last 24 hours without sleeping ^.^. I intend to get 10-12 hours of sleep tonight ready for tomorrow as it is bank holiday on Monday. My idea is just build everything from scratch using no pre built code, except certain required libraries, jQuery for example. Of course this means the design will quite possibly make you puke and have some scrappy javascript. But hey ho, it's been a long time since I have done anything decent and tasty. So I wanted to get this done. I am thinking mafia or fantasy, however I have many more ideas for mafia. Fantasy would require a vital couple of hours of planning and research. Anyone got any ideas for features that might be good? Hell I might even use it for a game sometime if I make decent progress tomorrow. So let me know any ideas you have :) Quote
sniko Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 I did this sort of thing Panther - a timed 'experiment' ;) I wish you luck, and please post what you have accomplished after, irregardless of quality :p Quote

Dave Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 You're going to make some amusing mistakes towards the end! Interested in what you create, you going to build a text based game or do some form of HTML5/canvas thing? Quote
Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Just a "text based game thing" :). Using canvas would require me learning before starting a challenge :). I have some ideas floating around. Cheers guys, starting at 12 today hopefully. Quote
Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Starting sometime this afternoon probably 1, got stuck at KFC hah Quote

Dominion Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Best of luck. It tends to limit mistakes if you don't forget that basic stuff like eating at a good time. Don't forget to take breaks (even just for a cup of Tea/coffee/whatever you drink) every now and then... and you know all the other general advice that is out there well using a computer. :p Quote
Coly010 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Good luck interested to see what you accomplish Quote

Good luck interested to see what you accomplish Cheers I don't have time to update this as often as I want, it's been 4 hours and not got much done. Still kind of planning it in my head along the way. took me 3 hours to realise smarty might be a very good idea for what I want. Quote
