Game ideas

This is a starting collection of game idea with brief discussions on how to build them.

Circle the Cat
The Circle The Cat Game is a simple casual game. The original game play description reads:

''This is quite difficult but can be done. Please do not blame me if you get no work done today.. or your catnap.. this is addictive... Try to encircle the cat, without letting it get out! Start by clicking on the image then on the light green down to try to trap it with dark green dots. not easy, it's a smart cat.''

Game design sketch

 * make a grid of background tile agents similar to the green dot. The grid will not have a row by row offset but that is OK.
 * make a border of invisible, white, agents around the entire game board
 * use a mouse trigger to have the light green background tiles into dark green tiles
 * use collaborative diffusion:
 * the white border will have a single Set ("f" to 1000) action making it the target surrounding the game board
 * the light green dots diffuse the "f" value: Set ("f" to "0.25 * f[up] + f[down] + f[right] + f[left]")
 * the dark green dots do NOT diffuse the "f" value: Set ("f" to 0)
 * the cat does a hill climb towards any free field
 * patterns: Diffusion, Hill climbing and if you create a collaborative extension then also Collaborative Diffusion
 * examples: original?
