Suggest HN: Make a JavaScript remake of the game Sentinel during the holiday season?
The game Sentinel is ripe for a remake using JavaScript. Are you looking for something to do during the holiday season? This might be a fun project to get into.
Short description for those who haven't heard about the game before: It's a three-dimensional hide-and-seek game from the first-person perspective in a surreal-looking chessboard-like landscape. The aim is to absorb as much energy as possible and finally to absorb the watcher that is positioned at the highest point of the level. The watcher is called The Sentinel, hence the name of the game.
It's considered a cult game [citation needed], but for some reason no (decent, multi-platform) remake exists.
(I'm not really a candidate to make it myself, I know my limitations. But I will absolutely play the remake! :) Why JavaScript? Because all things can be made in JavaScript and why not? Also, multi-platform.)
