  Features:

  • Chat with other users
  • Change display name (with /nick [your-nickname])
  • Switch between rooms (with /join [new-room])

• 

  Asteroids.js

  Classic Asteroids arcade game for the browser using Javascript and HTML5 canvas. Uses prototypal inheritance to DRY up code.

  Play it here!

• 

  Tic Tac Joe

  You know what Tic Tac Toe is - just play it here.

• 

  Chess - in your terminal!

  This Ruby implementation of Chess is built using object-oriented principles. All of the functionality of the game is split into logical classes. For example, pieces are split into classes of how they move (either sliding or stepping) that they each inherit from.

  Download the repo and play away!

  ActiveRecordLite

  ActiveRecordLite is a lite (duh!) version of Rail's ActiveRecord. Not nearly as robust as the real thing, but still pretty cool. This version employs Ruby's powerful Meta-programming potential to create many of ActiveRecords methods.

  This fun metaprogramming experience also contains RSpec tests.
