: Homemade Video Game
Jun 29, 2007

I tried making a video game out of paper and a box (and a few other craft items) once as a kid. Of course this was before I had a Nintendo or Playstation so it would have been quite the item to own, and quite an accomplishment in engineering as well. I believe it was to feature a spaceship that had to fly through some obstacles… like meteors, along a rolling paper backdrop. I don’t think I ever quite figured out how it would keep score. Wally has a pretty solid scoring system in place though, permanent win for the win!

    If you turn the game upside down, the score is 5 to 21!

    Once I tred to make a computer game. The empty pizza box was my computer and a rock was my character. I put sticks in the pizza box. shook up the pizza box then put my rock at one corner and tried to get to the other corner by goin’ through the maze of sticks. Succesful, but it had one flaw 🙁 when there was no path to the other corner. It was also 2 player. 2 people put there rocks at opisite corners and then race to the other person’s corner 😛
