Create your own adventure game with a spreadsheet!
Suppose you aim at creating quickly an adventure game (let say for a birthday gift, or whatever). Instead of learning how to program, learning a new framework, learning how to use a map editor... you just use your already installed spreadsheet software (such as Libre Office Calc, Microsoft Excel, etc.). Also, easy and funny to invite many friends to collaborate for the level design.
map.ods
in the LibreOffice format. Each cell is a tile.XXX.png
where XXX
are the labels in the cells of the spreadsheet.player
in the cell where the player should start.map.ods
. For instance objFlute ? p : T
means that if you have the flute, then the tile contains a p
(a path let say) and otherwise a T
(a tree let say)script.js
For saving your current game session, just copy the URL. Objects and position of the player are directly stored in the URL.
