 Matthew Lein 1014 Hunting at Bear Junction It's bear season at Bear Junction. Click to shoot at the bears. Only 1 bullet at a time--its one of those old school guns. Hunt for as long as you like! ----- I grew up playing Oregon Trail Deluxe, so this is modeled after that. Hunting was always my favorite part. tweet

 xpansive 1023 *Platformer Update* Despite what my parents told me to do, I kept working on my entry and managed to shave off another 60 bytes or so. So, I fixed every bug I knew of (there were a lot) and made the game reset when you get to the top, except with smaller floors and faster enemies. The powerups don't reset however, so make sure you don't get all of them on your first level! (There's more now so they'll last longer). tweet

 Ben Driscoll 976 A forest scene, my first js1k! After the initial shock of fitting code into only 1024 bytes, and cutting stuff that wouldn't fit, I realized I could squeeze it even smaller at the last moment. So here's my final submission. I feel like I could even add something at this point, but at the time of writing this the deadline is only 8 minutes away. Let me know if you see any more ways to compact it without changing the functionality, twitter @daisyowl. I've attached the source, which is only slightly less garbled than the crunched version. I used the YUI compressor on the final product, which was by far the best tool I tried. It automatically preserves global variables (doesn't crunch up all the drawing methods, only local private variables) and always returned code that functioned identically. Thanks for checking it out! I only found out about this a few days ago, and I can't wait till the next one starts. tweet

 SkyLined 1024 Implementation of 3D Simplex Noise used to generate plasma. I hope it's fast enough to run at a decent frame rate on slower PCs - try shrinking the window and refreshing to decrease the quality and speed it up if it's slow. The compression: The minimized, uncompressed source is 1443 bytes (optimized for compression). Just under 1K is taken up by the noise generator, the remainder is the plasma drawing code. Using my own custom made compressor (http://code.google.com/p/jssfx/), it is compressed to 910 bytes. The remainder of the 1024 bytes is comment. The plasma: Since I first saw Unreal by the Future Crew many years ago, I've always wanted to duplicate the "realcolorplasma" effect. This is not a perfect duplicate, but it's got a pretty natural flow and looks genuinely random, like the original. To create a sense of waves, noise is generated at 3 scales, one for each RGB color channel, with noise used for red having the largest scale and blue the smallest. To causes the smaller waves to move around a tweet

 Ben Scholl 1014 firefly.js: a handful of words transform into a dancing display of quickening lights Works with the 4 required browsers, plus IE9. Mostly minified by hand, and then with a quick Node script I wrote which calls Marijn's UglifyJS and then does some eval-based shortening - this got the size down from 1044 to 1014 bytes. tweet

 Elieder Sousa 1003 Fireworks Display This script implements a simple and beautiful fireworks display, using 6 colours and "lighter" colour mixing from Canvas to provide some 'light' effect. Because the high number of radial coloured circles, the script sometimes will run slow/fast; but works fine.. anyway. ** UPDATE ** 1003 bytes -> Improved code: now particles are removed when a fixed integer value is reached; which is better than "+new Date" method; -> Changed setInterval delay to 25 to balance the speed over the browsers; -> Now working on 4 required browsers; -> 2 more colours! Enjoy the fuchsia and aqua colours! tweet

 Tim Down 1022 Minesweeper. 9x9 grid, 10 mines. How to play: - Reveal a square by clicking on it. If it's a mine, boom. If not, it tells you how many mines it touches. If the square is not touching any mines, all its neighbours are automatically revealed. - Flag/unflag a square containing a mine using Shift-click. - Reveal all remaining unrevealed and unflagged neighbours of a square using Shift-click - The time taken is displayed on successful completion. Controls: - Click to reveal a square - Shift-click an unrevealed square to flag or unflag it - Shift-click a revealed square to reveal all its remaining unrevealed and unflagged neighbours Notes: I was not willing to compromise and lose features such as the timer, revealing a square's neighbours (middle-click from the original Windows game) and different coloured numbers, but after minifying by hand I still had around 1200 bytes, so I wrote a simple crushing script and got down to the magic 1024. tweet

 Paul Sonnentag 1010 Monoworld A small pixelworld 16x16 squares. Draw a plant and two animals and watch how they behave. The size and the color of an animals affects its behaviour. Smaller Animals move faster then bigger ones. Black animals eat other animals while white animals eat plants. They can breed if two animals of the same kind are next to each other. Plants spread all over the world - the smaller they are the faster they grow. tweet

 Romanenko Aleksey, Goryakin Sergey 1017 Far far away, somewhere in Oregon prairies there was a Snake! It loves apples, each of them adds five segments to the Snake, but be careful: if snake bites itself or hits the wall, it would die of dysentery! Become a mighty snake with 150 segments length and get level up. Good luck! Control snaky with cursor arrows. 'Space' to pause, 'N' for new game. tweet

 Mathieu 'p01' Henri 1021 Render a points cloud of 7000+ particles representing a carriage from the retro game the Oregon Trail. How much data ? There we have a colorful 7000+ points cloud spinning and twisting with shadow and lighting. That represents a 7000 x 4 = 28k of data for the position and color of the particles alone. Why ? Because I could not resist a good taunting ( http://twitter.com/#!/js1k/status/44870525780111360 ). Somebody had to render this bloody carriage in realtime. Thanks to @aivopaas for his JSCrush. My personal laptop died 3 days before the deadline and I had no backup of my code and especially of the new JS packer I am writing for JavaScript productions under 4k. tweet

 Jan Krutisch 1012 A simple racing game modelled after 80's LCD style handheld games (If you're born in the 70's or early 80's you'll recognize the game type, I guess. Uses @aivopaas' great js crusher, probably wouldn't have made it without it. The uglified game source clocks in at 1202 bytes, original with line breaks at around 1700. Nothing fancy, but I'm still amazed that I was able to make it in relatively short time. Thanks to @aemkei and @defsprite for challenging me :) tweet

Or ask a friend to. Or just watch the notes moving hypnotically up and down... * 3 different melodies are included - click to change exercise. One is Hanon no. 1, the other two are originals :) * A competent musician should be comfortable playing in any key signature. So each demo gradually takes you through all 12 keys. * Displays appropriate accidentals for each key * Includes ledger lines! tweet

 Alexei Alexandrovich 1023 Яainbow. Kind of "clone" of "7colors" DOS puzzle game. You start at the left bottom corner, enemy (AI) starts at the right top one. The goal is to "conquer" more than 50% of "territory" faster, than your opponent does. Use keys from "1" to "6" to choose new color (available colors are listed at the bottom of the screen). You can choose neither opponent's current color(red-highlighted number) nor your current color(green-highlighted number). You can switch between "VGA"/"EGA" versions using "0" key(the game will restart, the only difference is playing field size - 34x34 vs. 50x50). **UPDATE** -saved a few more bytes -diamonds look more like diamonds now -original sourcecode is a bit more commented tweet
