A new game called Petrus

Petrus is a brand new game, which is very addictive.

(Well, when I say ‘new’ I mean new adaptation of an old favourite…)

It should work on mobile phones as well as personal computers, etc.

It’s a Welsh-language adaptation of a game by Github user Chvin, which in turn is based on the original concept by Alexey Pajitnov and Vladimir Pokhilko.

It’s been an opportunity for me to practise version control in Git, and look at the React library for the first time.

Here’s the code.

Petrus is the second game in an occasional series. More to come soon!

Pŵl Cymru – a new game

Here’s a browser-based game for you to enjoy, Pŵl Cymru.

It is a Welsh-language adaptation of a game by Chen Shmilovich, and works on computers only. It won’t work on phonees or mobile devices.

If you’re not fluent in Welsh then you will probably figure it out. 🙂

Diolch i’r rhai sydd eisoes wedi ei phrofi, ac i Chen Shmilovich am ddatblygu’r gêm yn y lle cyntaf. / Thanks to those who have already tried it, and to Chen Shmilovich for developing the game in the first place.

The code is on Github. I learned a bit about creating games in JavaScript during the process of adapting and translating it.. There is a complete book about the subject and plenty of other resources online.
