Claw Machine over SSH

over SSH · 11.4 hrs

It is a game that runs on cmd. I have built it with the help of youtube, google and also AI. I am new to coding so my main objective was to learn the core of it and hence why the extra hour i spent. I made proper notes and all aswell which ofc didnt get counted but i dont want them to be either. The one thing I cant fix is the messages, the messages are not fully erasing, like the previous one isnt fully getting rid of itself.

This is the classic snake game in LibreOffice Calc. To play this, you need to have LibreOffice Calc installed on your PC (only tested on Windows). Play instructions and more info can be found in the github repo: https://github.com/suklaasukkulayt/snake-libreoffice_calc or sheet 1 in the file.

sudo noclip

in Terminal · 46.4 hrs

A 3D, backrooms-style horror game which runs entirely inside the terminal. To play, install it with "pip install sudo-noclip" and run it with "sudo-noclip". No windows, pixels, or GPUs needed. Just mathematical tricks and too much free will. Jokes aside though, this was quite a fun project. Building with the limitations of a CPU terminal is for sure a fun experience.

Shards Clicker, Tic-tac-toe, SkyBound and 3d Game in html

in Google Sheets · 45.4 hrs

So, I got 4 different games for the flip 2 console and the first game shards clicker work on google sheets just copy the project and click the crystal in center to check it and also you can check the leaderboards or power system, the tic-tac-toe is basic game with an achievement and history system and the skybounds has two stages in first one go to right island and click the "click crystal" and then go to main island and click the portal then in second stage just click the cystal and tap the portal to complete the gate then in last and most hard game(to devlop) you have to kill the 5 guards before time ends.. I know it got a lotta bugs and I even tried to solve them but guess it's hard due to the limitation of html and css.. The hardest thing about wrong was I had to learn many things as I am a unity developer and an intermidiate web devloper so I didn't knew about google sheets programming and 3d system in html. Also here I was only able to add a single link so the other link are on the github page.

[sakura_death] - a dating simulator in google docs

in Google Docs · 9.4 hrs

sakura_death is a dating sim visual novel inspired by games and culture from the 2010s-2020s. It is a half-parody, half-story game following an antisocial boy who tries to befriend a socially awkward girl. Truthfully, if it wasn't for this YSWS, sakura_death would never have been fleshed out as a story in the first place. Using Google Docs made planning out the story and scenes much easier than using an actual game engine (which is not what I think Wrong Tool was trying to do). Playing around with the font and photos to make it look like an actual game was fun, and I'd definitely try this again in the future with a more flexible deadline.

the_captcha_game.pptx

in PowerPoint · 10.7 hrs

A game in PowerPoint where you solve tricky captchas to prove you are not a robot, and study for your presentation! Made using the advanced animation features of PowerPoint. What made it painful was how most of the tasks were manual and I had to do repetitive and boring tasks (such as assigning the same animations to different boxes and making sure the timing is right) by hand.

Rage_bait.com

in Google slides · 8.1 hrs

Basically, when I was about to sleep, I got this idea of creating the game and as well as my friend already told me about this tool to create games so I just applied here my idea and so and if I talk about my game, it is provided into two parts. One is the escape the kidnapping and other is a don’t get rage baited.. And if we compare both the parts, the second part would be quite considerably easier than the first one as it will twisters and second one is straightforward, but unexpectedly all the answers would not be expected so that’s all about my project.

Hit That Puck!

in HTML, CSS · 15.8 hrs

This is a hockey web browser game made strictly with just HTML and CSS. To play, wait for the countdown to be over, hover over the green strike zone, and click the puck in time to score a goal. If you get 5 goals in a row, you win the game for your team. If you miss one, you unfortunately lose. The hardest part of no JavaScript was just figuring out how to have certain features happen when OTHER features happen. I most definitely abused keyframes and the ":has" property to link certain things together. Still, it was extremely fun, and I wanna keep working on it even after Wrong eventually. Until then, enjoy the demo.

A racing game starring a sentient toaster in Spreadsheet

in Spreadsheet · 10.4 hrs

This game was inspired by the random idea generator but I actually like how it turned out. I love the subway surfers game so I chose that as the base idea of the game. The game is a single HTML file with 3 parts: HTML sets up the page, a fake formula bar, <canvas> for the game, a shop panel, and Race and Leaderboards tabs. CSS styles it like a spreadsheet and switches between light and dark mode. Javascript runs the game itself. A requestAnimationFrame loop calls an update() function that moves the obstacles, checks collisions, and adds score, then a draw() function that paints the toaster, the kitchen, and the Warden (storm clouds which is what a toaster is afraid of) onto the canvas each frame. Arrow keys, A/D, or taps change the toasters lane. The shop items change how a run plays, and localStorage saves your bank, best score, and shop stock between sessions. I used Apps Script and set it so that the game runs automatically on open. Hope you enjoy

A psychological game that you play through your phone

in Phone calls · 35.1 hrs

It's a short horror game you play over the SIP operator. The game engine is Asterisk a server built for call centers etc. We were inspired by real Khovrino (abandoned soviet hospital) . The most fun thing in this was discovering how the call center works and how to set one up.

Classic pong

in Verilog · 24.6 hrs

Classic pong with a minor addon feature: rally smash. Play using keyboard, against a friend, or the CPU, with varying levels of difficulty. Verilog made it hard to make this since I had to think more in terms of "how would you implement this feature/system as a logic gate" so there's that from typically using classic C/C++ to code it. That made it more fun than hard to code frankly. But throw in usual SDL3 and Verilator shenanigans, and you get headaches. ESPECIALLY if you're trying to build for windows. Good lord, why is msys2 such a pain to work with on windows???? built with verilog, uses C++ as the simulation to handle output and player input, to link everything together, using the SDL3 library, and Verilator.

Endless maze game in Excel; EVERTURN

in Excel · 33.5 hrs

This is a game where you navigate an endless maze, collect coins, and earn a high score while doing so. The current goal is to get the highest score, but I plan to add a shop, more assets, and settings if I have time. Using VBA for the first time in my life was definitely a learning curve of its own. I've never seen such a weird coding language, but I studied it with AI and made a working code almost fully on my own. Also, there is no real way to play this online; you have to download the file and open it in Excel.

Escape the backrooms in Discord

Angrybirds in GeoGebra

Ok so I made angrybirds in geogebra. The angrybirds game in an online graphing calculator. I had to code everything in js.

A racing game set in a road in spreadsheets

in Spreadsheet · 10.2 hrs

My game is a racing game in Google Sheets where you race 4 computer cars. Click on the Racer menu at the top, open controls, then right arrow to drive and r to reset, with difficulty, boosts, oil, and car colors. It was definitely a challenge, I had no keyboard controls, so I built a sidebar, I used cells as pixels, cars disappeared and duplicated, and countless typos. But overall for my first time, I loved this and it's inspired me to go out and create even more projects.

maze in ssh with multiple levels

over SSH · 7.3 hrs

It's a maze made with python that runs on ssh. There are total of 5 levels with increasing difficulty. The most painful part of making was to continuously open and run the terminal to test the code. For now, it runs locally but I will very soon host it on a server.

A tetris in google sheets??

in Spreadsheet · 7.5 hrs

This is Tetris. A Russian game made in the 1990's. This game version is made on Google sheets where it is coded with HTML and JavaScript. The main problem is that when coding, is that the Appscripts Debugger constantly jumping in and changing some parts of the code. Got it working again so it works really smoothly. Please give feedback if there is anyproblems with the game

An escape room where the floor is lava in Terminal

in Terminal (using Python) · 10.2 hrs

This is an escape room game I made in python that's meant to run on your terminal. It was originally meant to run on email, but fsr I kept getting blocked by google authenticators and outlook authenticators or smth like that, which meant I couldn't use their APIs and whatnot properly to run the game on email or at least make it easy for others to run on email. It has three main puzzles and three rooms, which you can read more about on the README I wrote. The main thing I found difficult here was kinda learning a new coding language, since I'm only really used to C# which is the Unity engine code. I had learnt a little bit of Python in the past two years because my school had STEM class where we learnt some Python using Grok Academy. I'm overall pretty happy with the game, especially considering the puzzles which I think are a good balance of difficult but still doable.

ESCAPE CODE (An escape room over SSH)

over SSH · 20.5 hrs

It's an escape-room style CLI game that runs over SSH! It was my first time making anything for the terminal, so it was really tough but a fun and rewarding experience. I'm also a writer so I couldn't resist making lore for this game, but really, a lot of the ideas I stole from my previous game. Sorry if the challenges are kind of confusing. I don't have a demo URL, sorry about that. The command is ssh escapist@2a01:4f9:3a:276e::1342 -p 1

Tax Break! A dungeon crawler about tax season over SSH

over SSH · 10.1 hrs

*** THERE IS NO DEMO URL. This game runs through local host, There is instructions on how to run it on the GitHub. I was told on the Wrong Slack it was ok if I didn't have one.*** This is a game where you think your taxes are late, but something's wrong with the IRS. The game has 2 endings and DEFINITELY NO SECRET ONES. There's also some hidden lore you can find. If you're searching for hidden stuff, remember "2". You play it through a short list of commands on my GitHub page. If you have any problems, just message me on Slack, but I tested it on a different computer, and it worked. Making this work on SSH was both easy and not easy. In the end I settled for local host because I didn't have any way to host it myself. Being able to code it in Python made things pretty easy, but working only with text and then making it work over SSH (something foreign to me) was hard. In the end, it was really cool to be able to run it on other people's devices; not just running Python code was really cool.

A farming sim about a snail with places to be in Desmos

in Desmos · 10.9 hrs

It's a game where you're an ant and you live on top of a snail, and you're trying to get to the end of the garden. You have to do this by growing food for the snail. I like Desmos because it seems like just a graphing calculator but it's really powerful if your time has no value and you like hurting your brain.

Elevator of Faith in Figma

in Figma · 10.8 hrs

It was no that hard but making the story was a bit hard . but i managed to complete it it is not the best cause i did not have figma subscription so i cant do much because most of the prototype tools are locked behind figma subscription NOTE- this is a story type game only clicks of the mouse is needed and you need to read the every text to understand ending and all . it is in figma so you have to press present to play it it may ask to sign in so you will need to make a account

Point-and-Click Escape Game in Google Slides

in Google Slides · 11.9 hrs

This is a point-and-click escape game like the Henry Stickmin series and the Riddle School series. You play by entering the Google Slides in presentation mode and clicking on hyperlinks to progress. Google slides was really painful because I had more than 100 slides and it got really laggy. It was slow and I drew stuff with the shapes tool. It's also hard to make slightly different pathways because you can't store any variables so you just need a lot of slides.

The Gitventure of Abbey Grange

in git :) · 10.1 hrs

This is a git-driven, unabridged game adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Adventure of Abbey Grange. I made this during a holiday in beautiful Ooty, India. You play as Sherlock Holmes, investigating a murder through Dr.Watson's version controlled casebook.The game uses Git commits,branches and Github Actions to tell the story. How to play? Generate your own playable repository using the python build script (or fork mine). Explore Watson's records and git history to gather information / evidence. Once you have formed a deduction, write it in deduction.txt and commit and push it to the repository .GitHub Actions checks your answer, and if it's correct, Watson commits the next part of the story. There a 6 stages and two endings. Git is surprisingly well suited to detective work - commits are records, branches may hold different accounts of events and the version control aspect feels a lot like a sane crazy wall. The hardest part was the execution. I'm very new to Github Actions and debugging that was probably the most tedious part. I do feel more comfortable with it now, though Enjoy!.

Water simulation in Spreadsheet

in Spreadsheet · 10.1 hrs

This is a sort of simulation of water. It's not super realistic, but I still think its fun. It basically sees which neighbors have less water + terrain height, and moves the water there and also keeps track of velocity in a very basic way. This velocity is also used to sort of carve channels that the water can go to as you can see in the simulation. To play, just click on "Simulation" on the top bar and open the sidebar. To add/remove terrain select a range of cells in the sheet itself and press the button in the sidebar. There is a water source at the top left and drain at bottom right.

OMEGA-7 - A Figma Escape Room

in Figma · 14.3 hrs

omega-7 is an escape room built entirely inside a figma prototype. you wake up alone on a failing space station with the oxygen draining, and you have to work through five linked puzzles to get to the escape pod: find the keycard, decode the captain's log cipher, crack the airlock pin, restart the reactor by flipping the switches in the right order, then rewire the pod before the air runs out. you play it in figma's present mode, just clicking around the rooms like an old point-and-click game. the wrong-tool part is that figma has no code, no variables, no logic, and no sound. every "interaction" is really just a prototype link jumping from one frame to another. the keypad is 5 separate frames faking a 2-digit pin. the reactor is another chain of frames, one per switch state, with a reset frame if you mess up the order. the oxygen timer is literally one after-delay trigger copy-pasted onto every room. i ended up writing a script to generate all 48 frames and ~160 hotspots because wiring that by hand would've been miserable. it was genuinely fun seeing how far you can push a design tool into being a game engine, and kind of painful realizing that faking "state" means building a whole separate frame for every single thing the player could be looking at.

A LiDAR maze game in one fragment shader in Shaders

in Shaders · 18 hrs

It's a small maze game with LiDAR graphics, objects to collect, and movement with collisions, except that (through lots and lots of branching) all of the logic is executed entirely on the GPU. It was rather difficult getting the rendering equation working, but I'm really happy with how it turned out and especially how much I learned in the process! I'm also super satisfied with how visually interesting it's turned out, because while its almost difficult to look at in how vague the objects can be, that contributes a lot to the experience of it. I really really want to add more features, though. This was supposed to be a horror game!

Sudoku Game

in Spreadsheet · 6.9 hrs

If you know what Sudoku is, I need no introduction. But, its as simple as making sure no numbers repeat in any row, column, or in one of the six 2x3 boxes. It works through Google sheets built in formulas and the puzzle keeper keeps your puzzle from disappearing. The SOLVED and UNSOLVED changes colors depending on whether your solution is complete or not.

Detective game in PDF

in PDF · 12 hrs

Homelab Detective is a choose-your-own-adventure detective game that lives entirely inside a PDF. It’s 3 a.m., your homelab is under attack, and every choice you make leads somewhere new: 133 scenes, 12 endings (6 successes, 6 failures). You play by clicking the buttons on each page, because the PDF links jump between pages. Your inventory is shown at the top, and some choices stay locked until you pick up the right item, like the rescue USB or the offsite backup key. Page numbers are shuffled, so flipping ahead doesn’t help. The wrong tool is the PDF itself: it has no state, no variables and no logic, only links. To fake an inventory, a Python script explores every possible (scene, inventory) combination and generates a separate page for each one. It also checks that no state is a dead end and that every state can reach an ending. That was painful (I got blank pages, overflowing layouts and a lot of debugging), but also really fun, because it turned a document format into a tiny game engine, and the story is full of bad decisions you’re allowed to make.

An adventure game where you choose your own path, built entirely using HTML and CSS. Believe it or not, there isn’t a single line of JavaScript—it’s truly wild!

The Atrium: Murder in PowerPoint

in powerpoint · 17.9 hrs

The game is a mix of psychological horror and murder mystery as you navigate as a detective around an old very weird looking atrium mall that is probably going to shut down soon. In the game a murder has occured, the victim: Victoria, was pushed off the railing off the second floor. 3 suspects, 1 guilty. You must catch them and escape the mall before it catches up. How it works is you click the designated buttons and where you go depends on the area you click so you can look around, read notes left, find evidence that will point you to the culprit. It was a very fun experience navigating a lot of limitations in Powerpoint, especially when there is no state saves so I have to get creative and make new scenes with different variables change since I can't just: if not item: scene 3. But in a way it was very fun to make and it pushed my creativity to make a mix of a horror game and a murder mystery. The lore was a bit nonsensical but it's fun to make and play anyways.

Maze tank battle

over SSH · 10.6 hrs

a tank game that runs in your terminal. shoot the other tank, bullets bounce off walls. first to 5 wins. you can play 2 players on one keyboard or play against the cpu (easy, normal, or hard). It was hard to guess what the levels would acutally feel like when playing because they were all code.

slither.xlsx - A Snake Engine in Google Sheets

in Spreadsheet · 2.2 hrs

Built a fully functional retro arcade Snake game completely inside Google Sheets using Apps Script for the Wrong Tool challenge! Google Sheets is objectively the worst place to build a game, but I tortured the grid anyway. To fix the lag and screen tearing, I implemented batch matrix rendering (pushing full 20x20 arrays via setValues()), forced render flushes with SpreadsheetApp.flush(), and zero-read state management using PropertiesService. Features packed in: - 20x20 pixel grid with 10 goated aesthetic themes (GameBoy, Cyberpunk, Matrix, Dracula, OLED, Synthwave, etc.) - Universal static power-up colors so items keep their iconic shades across every theme - 6 insane power-ups: Blue Pill (speed), Ghost Apple (5s tail phasing), Magnet Berry, Shield Rune, Shrink Tonic, and Diamond Gem (3x multiplier) - Custom obstacle maps (Classic, Box, Maze) - Arcade death flash animation (blinks white twice before wiping the board)

CliWordle

in Terminal · 10.4 hrs

It is a CLI version of the famous discord minigame called as wordle. In that game you are supposed to guess a 5 letter word by small hints from the computer. When you give input then it will mark some character as red, cyan or green. Red means that letter doesnt exist in the word, cyan means the letter exists but you have given it at wrong position and green means the word exists and you have properly placed it. Making this project was quite of a hell as the input system keeps making the project go a bit funky. Even through your playthrough you might face some problems that even I cant explain. This thing was really painful but fun at the same time (no i am not a masochist). Well I hope you enjoy this game :D

Lunar Lander in Desmos in Desmos

in Desmos · 10.5 hrs

Lunar Lander in Desmos A basic Lunar Lander game, created in [Desmos Graphing Calculator](https://www.desmos.com/calculator). Features: Simulated Rocket Thrust Multi-tiered Landing Scores Gravity-Based Flight Physics Full Control Via On-Screen Buttons Angular Normalisation Randomised Terrain Instructions: Press the ticker in the upper left-hand corner to start the game. Please play full screen with the equation panel fully closed! Press "Burn" to engage rockets Spam "Burn" to move faster, but use more fuel Use the zoom buttons (+/-) to change your viewport size The "Reset Lander" button can be used to recover your lander from the starting point after a landing Press "New Game" to start over Use the injector scale to control the amount of fuel each burn uses up Rules: Don't crash! If either of your lander legs touch the moon's surface too hard, the lander will explode! Soft landings (Velocity <= 10) gain you 10 points Hard landings (Velocity <= 20) gain you 5 points Landings at Velocity > 20 or Angle > 25° (relative to the ground) will cause you to crash! After every landing, you can press "Reset Lander" to respawn at the top, for another landing opportunity See how many points you can gain before your fuel runs out! The entire project is centred on the lunar lander object, rather than the graph origin. The lander position is measured using the variable pair (`P_{osX}`, `P_{osY}`), which the graph viewport centers on and zooms based on the graph constants `C_{ameraScaleX}` and `C_{ameraScaleY}`. The same follows for `Z_{oom}`, which has no effect on the graph itself but rather the positions of all non-anchored graphics. Buttons and labels are anchored to the screen using the `A_{nchored}` function, which passes the point and outputs the point with the offset of the lunar lander (That being the `P_{osX}` and `P_{osY}` pair as mentioned prior). The collision logic constantly checks if both legs of the lunar lander are below the terrain, and if so, pauses the game to check the lander's relative velocity. `C_{ollisionType}` is analogous to an enum taking the value of 0, 1, 2, or 3. Where 0 is no collision, 1 is crash landing, 2 is hard landing, and 3 is soft landing. Points are awarded depending on the type of crash. One of the main hurdles of creating games like this one in Desmos are race conditions, in the form of actions. Every action's order needs to be absolutely precise, otherwise one variable will update and mutate its value before it can be used by another function. The other massive hurdle is that there is no code whatsoever. If you can't decompose a programming concept into pure logic, then you can't create a desmos game. For example; the analogous enum variable `C_{ollisionType}` is just a value, such as `x` in the equation `2x = 10`. But `C_{ollisionType}` undergoes detailed processes to maintain a discrete and computationally predictable value, in this case the action `C_{ollideCheck}`, which is shown below. ``` C_{ollideCheck}=V_{elocity}\to\operatorname{mean}\left(V_{elList}\right), C_{ollision}\to P_{ositive}\left(\left(2-\left(P_{ositive}\left(L_{eftAltitude}\right)+P_{ositive}\left(R_{ightAltitude}\right)\right)\right)\right), S_{core}\to S_{core}+R_{unning}\left(5C_{heckHard}\left(C_{ollisionType}\right)+10C_{heckSoft}\left(C_{ollisionType}\right)\right), C_{ollisionType}\to N_{ot}\left(D_{ead}\right)\left(C_{ollision}\cdot G_{etLandingMode}\left(V_{elocity},\Delta\right)\right), D_{ead}\to O_{r}\left(C_{heckCrash}\left(C_{ollisionType}\right),D_{ead}\right), R_{unning}\to N_{ot}\left(O_{r}\left(D_{ead},C_{ollisionType}\right)\right) ``` Another example of computational logic in mathematical form are some of my functions. The function `A_{nd}` takes two inputs, which it assumes are *boolean values* (That is, the variables passed can only be 1 or 0), and outputs the correct value based on a piecewise function. If both inputs are 1, then a+b will equal 2. If a+b = 2, then both inputs are 1, so therefore the output must also be 1, this is analogous to an AND gate. ``` A_{nd}\left(a,b\right)=\left\{a+b=2:1,0\right\} ``` Made By Jonah Crawford (@The_Craw) for the "Wrong Tool" event during Stardance, hosted by Hack Club

A dating sim over Email

over Email · 13.1 hrs

# this is **ISOTO: ** In Search Of The One The game runs completely using gmail and google sheets (apps script is a part of google sheets). It follows you as **Nephis**. Due to too much time it was taking, i could only make the one for female character (❁´◡`❁) do forgive me. I'll be still working on this project after shipping it. Currently only Act 1 has been completed. I have planned for it to have 4 acts. So consider this a part 1 on the project..... # what was hard? first question i had after looking at the event was what kind of magic mod do you use inside these things to make an entire game inside of google sheets and gmail. So i found out **YOU CAN ACTUALLY RUN JAVASCRIPT INSIDE OF GOOGLE SHEETS.** That was at the same time hilarious and awesome. The first phase of this project was set to researching dating sims..... "(Ahem- i did not play and binge 2 dating sims straight up one as a girl and one as a boy)" then i decided to put my supreme maths skills to use by creating a formula for love: "a love formula" (it has a nice ring to it). i then needed characters and different personas so i created a form and sent it to some of my friends. i got 5 responses and decided to make 5 characters. Then came lore writing: the hardest part......... i know my lore isnt all that niche and unique and my writing is quite bad (i've been bad at it at school too thats how i lose most of my marks in the english paper) but yeah JUST KNOW THAT I TRIED MY **BEST**!!!!!!!!! # how to play: url: https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&[email protected]&body=code%3Aisoto This will redirect you to gmail to send a gmail that will begin the game...... - One important thig to note is that you should have only 1 google acocunt logged in. It is a bug from google's side......... # Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had a great time making this.... It was tbh kind of exciting.... and most of all i can now flex i made a damned dating sim inside gmail hahahahahahah!!!!!!!!!! (nvm the villain laugh) thanks to @cskartikey for this event!!! :)

emyst: an Email MYSTery

over Email · 10.3 hrs

emyst is an mystery game via email whre you communicate with the game via email (which is obviously not made for something like this). You can play it by just mailing `[email protected]`! There are several commands you could try: `look`, `inventory`, `go <direction>`, `take <item>` and `use <item>`. Every command has a shortcut (e.g. "l" for "look", "g" for "go" etc) Tip: look after a key in the forest :)
