Games::Go::Dg2ASCII is a Perl extension to convert Games::Go::Diagrams to ASCII diagrams.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Go::Dg2ASCII
my $dg2ascii = B convertDiagram($diagram);

A Games::Go::Dg2ASCII object converts a Games::Go::Diagram object into ASCII diagrams.

Games::Go::Dg2TeX is a Perl extension to convert Games::Go::Diagrams to TeX.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Go::Dg2TeX
my $dg2tex = B convertDiagram($diagram);

A Games::Go::Dg2TeX object converts a Games::Go::Diagram object into TeX source code which can be used stand-alone, or it can be incorporated into larger TeX documents.

Games::GuessWord is a guess the letters in a word (ie Hangman).

SYNOPSIS

use Games::GuessWord;

my $g = Games::GuessWord->new(file => "/path/to/wordlist");
print "Score: " . $g->score . "n";
print "Chances: " . $g->chances . "n";
print "Answer: " . $g->answer . "n";
my @guesses = $g->guesses;
$g->guess("t");
# ...
if ($g->won) {
print "You won!n";
$g->new_word;
}

This module is a simple wrapper around a word guessing game. You have to guess the word by guessing letters in the word, and is otherwise known as Hangman.

Games::Mastermind is a simple framework for MasterMind games.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::Mastermind;

# the classic game
$mm = Games::Mastermind->new;

# make a guess
$marks = $game->play(qw( Y C W R ));

# results
print "You win!n" if $marks->[0] == $mm->holes();

# the game history is available at all times
$history = $mm->history();
$last_turn = $mm->history()->[-1];

# reset the game
$mm->reset();

Games::Mastermind is a very simple framework for running Mastermind games.

Games::3D is a package containing an object system for (not only) 3D games.

SYNOPSIS

use Games::3D::World;

my $world = Games::3D::World->new();

$world->save_to_file( $filename );

my $loaded = Games::3D::world->load_from_file( $filename );

my $thing1 = $world->add ( Games::3D::Thingy->new( ... ) );
my $thing2 = $world->add ( Games::3D::Thingy->new( ... ) );

$world->link($thing1, $thing2);

Games::3D::World provides you with a container class that will contain every object in your game object system. This are primarily objects that have states, change these states and need to announce the states to other objects.

The Games::3D::World container also enables you to save and restore snapshots of your objects system.

Basic things that you object system contains are derived from a class called Games::3D::Thingy. These can represent physical objects (buttons, levers, doors, lights etc) as well as virtual objects (trigger, sensors, links, markers, sound sources etc).

You can link Thingys together, either directly or via Games::3D::Links. The links have some more features than direct linking, which are explained below.

This package also provides you with Games::3D::Sensor, a class for objects that sense state changes and act upon them. Or not, depending on the sensor. Sensors are primarily used to watch for certain conditions and then act when they are met. Examples are the death of an object, values that go below a certain threshold etc.

State changes are transported in the object system with signals.

Games::PerlWar is a Perl variant of the classic Corewar game.

This is a sparring program, similar to the programmed reality of the Matrix.
It has the same basic rules, rules like gravity. What you must learn is that
these rules are no different than the rules of a computer system. Some of
them can be bent, others can be broken. - Morpheus

PerlWar is inspired by the classic http://www.corewar.info/|Corewar game. In this game, players pit snippets of Perl code (called agents) against each other in order to gain control of the vicious virtual battlefield known as... the Array.

GAME PARAMETERS

Size of the Array

The number of cells that the Array possesses. Each cell can hold one agent.

Agent Maximal Size

The maximal length, in characters, of an agent. If an agent is or becomes larger than this limit, it automatically segfaults upon execution.

Game Maximal Number of Iterations

The maximal number of rounds that can be played before a game is declared over.
