Just for Fun!

Basically, it would be a keyboard using a straight telegraph key for taping Morse Code.

To make it connect to computer via USB, I prefer using a Arduino Leonardo and some other hardware.

      Ha ha ha, I can't imagine writing code with this. Is there morse code for backspace and arrow keys? Do you need a second key for control codes?

        It seems a extra key (button) is needed for SHIFT or CapsLock, however it may not replace every character on normal 104 keyboard. But I would like to try!

    Port some classic game to Linux by MDoucha

    Let's pick some old classic game, reverse engineer the data formats and game rules and write an open source engine for it from scratch. Some games from 1990s are simple enough that we could have a playable prototype by the end of the week.

    Write which games you'd like to hack on in the comments. Don't forget to check e.g. on Open Source Game Clones, Github and SourceForge whether the game is ported already.

    Hack Week 25 - TBD

    It's time to pick a game for the upcoming Hack Week. Discuss in the comments what game you'd like to hack!

    Hack Week 24 - Master of Orion II: Battle at Antares & Chaos Overlords

    Work on Master of Orion II continues but we can hack more than one game. Chaos Overlords is a dystopian, lighthearted, cyberpunk turn-based strategy game originally released in 1996 for Windows 95 and Mac OS. The player takes on the role of a Chaos Overlord, attempting to control a city. Gameplay involves hiring mercenary gangs and deploying them on an 8-by-8 grid of city sectors to generate income, occupy sectors and take over the city.

    How to ~~install & play~~ observe the decompilation progress:

    • Clone the Git repository
    • A playable reimplementation does not exist yet, but when it does, it will be linked in the repository mentioned above.

    Further work needed:

    • Analyze the remaining unknown data structures, most of which are related to the AI.
    • Decompile the AI completely. The strong AI is part of the appeal of the game. It cannot be left out.
    • Reimplement the game.

    Hack Week 20, 21, 22 & 23 - Master of Orion II: Battle at Antares

    Master of Orion II is one of the greatest turn-based 4X games of the 1990s. Explore the galaxy, colonize planets, research new technologies, fight space monsters and alien empires and in the end, become the ruler of the galaxy one way or another.

    How to install & play:

    • Clone the Git repository
    • Run ./bootstrap; ./configure; make && make install
    • Copy all *.LBX files from the original Master of Orion II to the installation data directory (/usr/local/share/openorion2 by default)
    • Run openorion2

    Further work needed:

    • Analyze the rest of the original savegame format and a few remaining data files.
    • Implement most of the game. The open source engine currently supports only loading saved games from the original version and viewing the galaxy map, fleet management and list of known planets.

    Signus is a Czech turn-based strategy game similar to Panzer General or Battle Isle series. Originally published in 1998 and open-sourced by the original developers in 2003.

    How to install & play:

    • Run ./bootstrap; ./configure; make && make install in both signus and signus-data directories.
    • Run signus
