Open source games for FEZbit?

Hello, I just picked up a Fezbit board and was interested in creating some simple games and such on it to play with my kids. I was hoping to find some existing open source games to bootstrap some of my own but I am not seeing anything out there.

Can anyone share any resources for some simple games I can try out on the FEZbit? I’m not too afraid of porting stuff from simple .NET games or games from other platforms like Arduino but it would be nice to have something to try out initially without a lot of boilerplate work.

Thanks!

There was a few samples here and there a while back but most got lost as this was before GitHub.

I personally have made a few :grinning:

Welcome to the community

I just saw you post, hopefully not too late. I have some games that I wrote for Gadgeteer when I first started with it. I converted the code for TinyCLR a while ago, unfortunately I had to remove the sound because I had originally used sampled sound that was played using one of the Gadgeteer modules.

I had plans to write a small game engine. That never went far beyond what is in this code base, but it is separated into a Game Library and then the two games that use it, FEZMan a pac-man clone and FEZRally a Rally-X clone.

I just checked, the original code was written over 12 years ago, how time flies.

@taylorza What a boss! Thanks so much for sharing, will definitely check your repo out soon.

You also somehow reminded me that I made a few games for my Zune HD probably 15 years ago now, I should try to recycle that code…
