| I remember reading about Corewar roughly 20 years ago and thinking that I will have to have a go at that when I get the time. As often happens in life, things got in the way and I only recently managed to give it a go. I love the challenge of programming and the competitive aspect of this programming game really appeals to me. The object of the game is to write a battle program that will take over a virtual computer and kill the other battle programs running upon it. Since the game recently celebrated it's 25th birthday, I thought that I would write the following brief introduction to the game to whet peoples' appetite and encourage new interest. |
