Two Player Strategy Game - NullGee (Zero Gravity Connect Four)
Monday, September 3, 2007

Someone commented recently that the last week or two has seen quite a few changes at The Problem Site, and that is certainly true. As I look back over the last few entries in this blog, most of them have been about The Problem Site.
There are a variety of changes I had hoped to implement before school started, and I didn't quite get them all done, so I'm still working on this on Labor Day!
The most recent addition to the site is a new version of "NullGee" (also known as "Zero Gravity Connect Four"). This game is like Connect Four, except that pieces can be dropped from any side.
The old version was one of the very first games added to The Problem Site, way back in 1990-something. It was straight ASP and VBScript, which meant that every move resulted in the entire page being refreshed, which was quite annoying for people with slow internet connections (which was pretty much everyone back then!).
The new version is Flash based, and has a more attractive user interface.
If you like, you can compare the two versions:
Zero Gravity Connect Four, OLD VERSION
Zero Gravity Connect Four, NEW FLASH VERSION
Currently the old version is still linked in, and the new one is not. But please give a try to the new version, and give feedback on what does and does not work well.Labels: nullgee, theproblemsite
