A starkit full of 60 games and animations, mostly from this Wiki.
Why not make it 100 games?
LV I don't think the author is trying to stop at 60 - however, one can't put 100 script only games into the pack, until another 40 games which work (hopefully cross platform) are identified).
---> See Bundle o' Starkits - URL: http://tkoutline.sourceforge.net/tkgamepack.kit
So, what Tcl/Tk script only games are not yet in tkgamepack? If you are interested, then help by adding or filling in entries in the Games to add section below.
Games to investigate
- [Add some here that you don't find in either of the two below lists]
Games to add
- Please format the text in this section to match the format of a valid Tcl list described later in this page (name, description, url, category). The name will correspond to a filename/directory name, so I recommend against using spaces.
Rejected games
Binary dependencies
- Babbleback machine - Snack - thoroughly depends on Snack
- Asteroids - Snack - should be fairly easy to make this dependency conditional
- TurnOut {description here} http://wfr.tcl.tk/916 {category here} - Depends on Img - should be fairly easy to make this dependency conditional on Img being available.
Not a game - This is somewhat arbitrary as some "games" that are included aren't games either
