I just have two three suggestions:

1. Add some text when games are being loaded in the download section, just to show that the listing is actually being downloaded rather than a blank white screen. Same applies to the installed games, maybe some text saying "No games, install some" or something along those lines.

2. Have an error screen when a game crashes/errors rather than showing the error message than quickly redrawing the library.

3. Arrow key functionality so I can navigate with my keyboard rather than the mouse.

How about a messaging/friend system and "Strafe" In-Game overlay

You can try 000webhost.com, they give you free web servers with php support. The only downside is that they'll put some extra html in your php pages and somebody has to view it 10 times a month to keep the website up (which is not a problem because you have a very popular and cool program called Strafe on the computercraft forums)

I would recommend, x10hosting.com, they offer free plans without advertising, custom domains for free and aren't blocked by AT&T like 000webhost.

Sorry, but I'm not active anymore with ComputerCraft, and I certainly don't have the skill to set up such a big networking task.
Thanks for the suggestions though!

Hi Redxone,

No need to apologize, thanks for sharing your game.
Unfortunately, I am inactive with ComputerCraft for a few months now due to being busy with school and an overall burnout with programming.
I might come back with a tech demo or something like that.
The new characters in CC1.76 seem really interesting and I've thought of an interlacing solution which allows for a virtual 60fps playback on the 20fps computercraft screens.
I wish you good luck with your game :)

Cheers

Hmm? I'm kinda lost as to what you might be thinking here; as far as I'm aware there's no such limit on the displays themselves...

Could you add my new game SimpleCCRockets? You build and fly rockets. :P

Hey guys!

I'm thinking of making a completely revamped Strafe, let's call it Strafe 2.0 :P
It will have a better UI system, categories for games, chip-8 games with an emulator and an achievement/stats API (no overlays though, that's impossible, and also no friends/messaging system. I'm not going to set up a server).
Let's hope I have enough motivation to build and finish this! :)
If you have any suggestions, please reply.
It really helps my motivation grow

Hi bluebird173,

Sorry for taking so long to respond, I didn't see this and I wasn't really active with CC.
Anyways, I can't add your game because I don't add proof-of-concepts to Strafe.
Also, the game doesn't work when I place it in anything other than the root directory.
Thanks for the effort, though :P

Sounds good. Looking forward to it!


FYI, I tried out your script and it completely killed my server. I downloaded all available games, and now when I run strafe the server begins to lag like crazy. After a couple of minutes I can't even interact with anything anymore. I've reproduced it 3 times now, so I'm pretty sure it's Strafe. I am using ComputerCraftEdu 1.74. I will have to uninstall for now, but I'm looking forward to any fixes.

If you add a server:
Someone mentioned 000webhost adding a piece of html. You can get rid of that by disabling analytics.
I personally, however, reccommend c9.io for testing, and heroku for hosting. The nice thing is c9.io has a linux terminal, so you can push your ruby or php app directly from c9.io to heroku.com

It's been a while, but I've added QuickDraw by LDDestroier and Doom by Xelostar to the games list.

I'm using these two games to improve compatibility and correctness in the ComputerCraft emulator I'm developing right now, CCBox.
